The reason to nag people into installing the app is that Safari has #intelligentTrackingPrevention but SDKs in native apps can collect all the data they want when they want it. (Was the iOS team playing Candy Crush during the privacy meeting while the Safari team paid attention?)

Pushing past the tactical, developers *frequently* express concern to us that they'll "miss out" on capabilities if they build for the web (vs. native). This is a key driver of short-term decision making in our experience. Folks don't want to be caught flat-footed vs. competition
