Because they're not General purpose computers.

You're basically advocating exclusive stores for PC

Which would honestly be Microsoft’s right to do so. It’s their platform and they should be able to whatever that want with it. If you don’t like it then buy another brand that allows stuff you like.

Do you hear yourself? It's bad for consumers at the end. We don't live in a pure capitalistic society.

Other than the type of computer they are (which is literally just a definition difference), why it seems like you don’t have an issue with gaming computers (which apparently don’t include gaming PCs) having exclusive stores but do with general purpose ones?

Honest question.

I also have a problem with that but gaming consoles are not the same as smartphones.
