At the same time, if someone has indicated that they want to give my app a bad review, am I obligated to take them to the review point so they can do it?
I don't think that any of these dark patterns represent the breaking of obligations by any party.
Dark patterns don't represent anything truly sinister, and in most cases they are perfectly legal. They are just bad UX because they're dishonest about their intent.
