I miss data to confirm any of this does significantly improve security.
Anecdata:
I have yet to meet someone who have been targeted by unknowingly side-loading apps.
If they really want to improve security they can work on much more impactful changes.
I know people having been scammed by ads proudly delivered by instagram and google.
I read about malicious apps that somehow went through official store filtering.
