Just because many users are currently comfy in their Apple bubble does not mean that the bubble should be allowed to exist.

Why not? It is our own choice. If you do not like it, buy a Nokia.
I choose supporting laws that allow devices to be more open, so that those devices can better serve their users.
It is your choice, just like you don't have to use sideloading. Choices are nice.
Most people dont like too many choices. And sideloading just might destroy the experience for the majority, because many big players could choose to have their own store.
Sideloading didn't destroy MacOS, Windows or Android. Unless you have evidence that iOS is somehow different, I'm going to assume that it won't destroy iOS either.
Phones are different from computers, it is a different market with different requirements. Apple app store is much more succesful than Android “app store”. That is the evidens for you.
That's not evidence of anything, besides Apple's incentive to reduce user choice.
