So they adapt their policies throughout the process to make sure they are modern?

You're taking a very pessimistic view of this process.

Because just for starters Apple even tried to argue they shouldn't be subject to the legislation because they didn't have one store but multiple stores. Same with iMessage and whatnot

But it didn't work, did you expect apple not to claim they were compliant and didn't need regulation?

No, no, I'm taking a realistic view. I know exactly how and why it works this way and it makes it somehow more democratic and productive while appeasing the lobbying efforts and capabilities of big companies.

It just takes a lot of time, and you'll remember my post whenever Apple finally decides to announce sideloading.

It isn't realistic, you're complaining. You're giving out that apple will fight their case, in what world would they not? Companies will try to find workarounds to laws and lawmakers will try to close loopholes. Is their lobbying influence? Absolutely. But it's hasn't stopped the creation of the legislation.

Apple side loading will be proof the law is working, that is the intention of the law to facilitate side loading. If they find a way to make it difficult there are avenues that can be taken from anti competition cases to changing the law.

I honestly cannot see what you're giving out about. Do you want laws passed in a day with no oversight?

No, I'm giving out they'll bypass the intent of the law while complaining. Or at least they'll bypass your interpretation of the law because in mine it doesn't say anything about against restricting it, about having a vetting process or requiring payments.
