This would actually be a big step for many Android users wanting to try out another OS.

I know for myself that sideloading apps is a must for me on my phone, and if an iPhone could do that, it's at least one step closer for consideration.

Still having to buy completely another device to switch operating systems... Not because the system was not adapted yet, but because of software locks and purposful roadblocks.

That's the biggest benefit, competition ripples back and forth across services and improves everything. One thing gets better, so other things have to get better, so everything gets better.

Knock-on effects are insanely good.

Nah. As an Android user, the only other OS's I'm interested in are ones that further embrace the Linux ecosystem.
