Opinions vary. The lack of browser extensibility is not always a benefit to the user, for example.

Apple not permitting apps that display certain types of legal content in the App Store is not a benefit to users that like to produce or consume those types of content. Censorship sucks, even if Apple is legally permitted to do it because it’s their store. It’s rude.

Hopefully the rumor that Apple is soon going to let you select a different default browser/mail/music/photos app is true, and this will be less of an issue.

It will still be an issue because of the many types of apps that Apple simply censors entirely from the store, from Tumblr to Tor to VPNs in China.
