That sounds about right for Google play. That said, the point still stands. If Google wanted to implement such a feature, it could probably be done by onky patching things on their store backend. I'm sure it wouldn't be a trivial change, but still it wouldn't need to touch the OS itself. Probably. As far as the phone is concerned, it would still be disallowing rollbacks as usual.
