Because of stuff like this? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48207660

If you don't have the ability to police extensions you're basically putting your users up for sale?

But they support extensions on desktop.

The problem you linked to also happened on desktop because there is no VSCode for phones.

Your users don't have to use those extensions, so I don't understand how that's relevant? People who do, should be made aware of risks and that's it. This is not a good argument against taking away their option to have that customization.

How is this an argument when you can use extensions on the desktop version?

No, if that were true, there would be no extension support on non-mobile

They can add support for Chrome and Edge extensions marketplaces.
