I have a hard time with this explanation, as the Steam Store is already available through the iOS Steam app which is available on the Apple app store.

I'm assuming it could be relating to the inability to play a game you've just bought, if limited to just the Steam Store app.
That alone isn't exactly competition against the first-party's store.

You can't buy games using the Steam Store app.

You can buy games with the existing Steam app. I do it all the time during the sales.

My bad, I remember trying to before and being unable to, I just assumed it would be the same situation as the kindle app.

The Steam app? You sure as heck can buy games through it.
