    If you want devs to make apps without any monetization you're limiting the number of devs that will develop for your platform.

    Free only means you only allow passion projects that people work on as a side project or only the developers rich enough to have retired already.

    Nobody who is struggling to get by can spend all their time developing a free app that has 0 monetization.

    So they monetize on Google Play.

    If you care about breaking Google's control of Android you should cheer on another paid marketplace, especially one out of the clutches of Amazon.
