So you need to change two settings instead of one to side load. Seems rather pointless.
Big difference is that that one setting was shown to you with a button press when you tried to install an app. With this, you need to remember or make a screenshot of where you need to go, open the settings app and then go there and toggle it on. It's just a lot more annoying to do and Samsung probably hopes that that will deter people from doing it.
Just standard corporate dark patterns
Screenshot? What are you, a goldfish?
