As someone who has no knowledge of the ecosystem: Why would people who self-host wordpress care about access to wordpress.org? Isn't the point of self-hostung to use your own infrastructure?

The mechanisms built into Wordpress for auto-updates and plugin updates use that infrastructure.

Convenience.

Imagine buying a iPhone and not having access to the App Store.

Sure there are ways around it. But the average iPhone user would have a melt down.

Honestly, for Android you could actually use Aurora for most things, or only use stuff from F-Droid.
