Side Note: Google has been the champion of PWAs which main use case is to be able to bypass an app store and install an app directly from a website. This gives Google less control over the app ecosystem but has the potential to be beneficial to users.
If I'm not mistaken, Google still has power over the PWA spec, so they can just add something to give themselves total control again. (Just like they've done with AOSP and the Play Store + GSF)
