> while apps distributed on other (native) platforms never have such a problem

Could you give an example? I was an android app dev over 5 years ago and there was a huge push for lower app size everywhere. Google even made Android App Bundles to fight this issue specifically.




however big, you're only required download an app once. Next time there is an update that you cannot download, generally that won't block you from using the app at that point in time.


It actually depends, developer can block you from using the app until you update, either themselves or through Play Store's 'Immediate updates'.
