Indeed, by default AFAICT they provide ~~Aurora Store and F-Droid~~ App Lounge (edited: was a little while so I forgot, I install F-Droid on every Android device I have as a reflex).
Regarding the consequence... well I don't know the future. Maybe alternative stores will have a "trick" so that they are considered verified and thus can install other
.apk, or maybe it won't matter for rooted phones anyway.e came with App Lounge as their Store last time I installed it, but I got Aurora and F-Droid immediately for redundancy.
I don't remember exactly so you are probably right, editing my comment.
