Or does googles "inhouse" applications stronger legal/thechnical protection?
Google Play is Google's App Store. It is not the only Android App Store. Google's services are not given away for free. That is why Jolla is using 3rd party App Stores instead of Google Play. In China Google Play doesn't have any paid apps and there are other local app stores which are more popular. Google's play store is the Biggest Android app store but it is not the only one. Also, you should be able to side-load apps if you want.
