Doesn’t Apple already allow side loading to some degree?
You can just put an app onto a iDevice through iTunes, without having to run it through the App Store. Apple even puts out a specifically outdated version of iTunes that still retains much of the App functionality.
It’s not as though they’re trying to build the feature in from scratch.
Why would it be a huge undertaking? Allowing installing apps from package files obtained from anywhere seems like a trivial change to the software for a company with a lot of resources.
Law comes into effect march 2024. Apple will need to comply then
AFAIK they have no way of doing that. This would be a huge undertaking.

I have a few side-loaded apps on my phone through TrollStore. iirc they don’t support anything relatively new though.

Watch how they will act like it was their decision.
