I think that is pretty different than what is happening here because:

1. It doesn't require an entirely new app. You can ship the same apk on all platforms.

2. Most apps already don't have a hard dependency on play services.

Amazon and BlackBerry both tried the whole “you can upload your same APK to our AppStore approach”.

And well, when’s the last time you used the Amazon android AppStore?
