> Apple has to review our apps before they’re released and they certainly have capability to review a trusted pasteboard copying predicate as I am suggesting.

Are you willing to provide signed proof that the user consented to this action? The same way you provide signed code to prove you're the one uploading the code. Presumably this would have to be via a key that you don't have access to (only the user would be able to consent to this).

Because that seems like the parallel here.

Technically, apple should be auditing your flows at that point too, to make sure there aren't any dark patterns.

But, yeah, at that point, I think you could make that argument stick.

If we can do it in a way that reduces friction and doesn’t break the flow, then absolutely yes.

Speaking from a user point of view, I find arguments like this are often disingenuous (I'm not saying that yours is). "Tailoring for the user" normally actually means "tracking the user". Specifically, the passing of UTM parameters from my website session to my app session is something that normally has no benefit to me and I find it repugnant that developers feel entitled to do it.
