No, but you made it sound like "Android has a terrible experience side-loading" when what you should have said was "I had a bad experience side-loading on Android", your experience is not the norm and if you're going to claim that it is I can easily claim mine is as well.
Having to go through 4 menus to turn something off that hasn't triggered once in 10+ years seems acceptable. Not sure why you're getting that amount of popups, but it either has something to do with your phone, the app, or something else specific to you. This is not a common issue, I have side-loaded a bunch of things for over a decade, worked in android apps (in fact I'm currently compiling and installing an app almost daily), and worked with several people and several phones and have never seen that popup once, not saying that you're not seeing it, not saying that you're not seeing it a lot, not invalidating your experience, just pointing out that it's not common, so when you make a broad statement like:
You can expect the remaining 99% of users who are not affected by whatever weird combination of factors you have that triggers this will reply that it's not common.

Just look at the responses here... It's funny how threads like this pop up all the time. And the default stance people take is fear because daddy google told them that it's unsafe. But right! Since you've never seen it, it affects literally nobody!
