They don’t have to re-implement the Google framework stuff.
Most of these apps don’t in China either. But you do need to reimplement an update-checker. And that’s enough to hog the RAM. And with the RAM already hogged, the window shattered, little optimization of the update-checker is done.
Sure, they’ll have to learn about them, but they have to learn about many things in life!
They won’t learn about it if it becomes the norm to have RAM hogged.
this is currently playing out in the EU
No, you have to go through complicated bureaucracy and fees to become an independent app store for iOS. Anyone who goes through this is probably competent enough to optimize their update-checker.
I have three app stores installed on my Android, yet none hog my RAM. This is a non-issue (especially since an update checker doesn’t run all the time, only on infrequent intervals which are triggered by the OS itself).

You are initiated enough to consciously avoid junk apps.
