You can invent the same convuted path for everything. Ok, for the PWA: go to Google. Find the pwa you want. Make sure you did not exceed your data cap. Figure out how to add it to home screen. It will end app at screen #5 and will never be found again.

How is that easier? What if you want to sell your app?

Real scenario for native apps is much more simple: you get either the link to the app or the banner. Tap on it, tap get, tap open. That’s it.

Btw, there is an app offloading, which provides you space by getting rid of the app you don’t really use. And for the missing space argument to be even a little bit valid you must talk about huge apps, which probsbly means they provide functionality you could not replicate with a PWA.
