I am in the camp that there is a benefit to the managed store. Since moving family members to iOS devices the number of times they have loaded malware or asked me for help installing ANYTHING dropped to zero.
Should techies be able to side load if they want? Sure, should that be a primary install method? No.
A few releases ago they made it so you can DEFAULT new entities NOT to be controlled by the VA… I cleared ALL entities and changed the setting. I only add things one at a time to voice control now.
SO many integrations ad switches it is a high risk to default the VA to have access to all new ones.
