Many people protect themselves by limiting their own actions on purpose. For example: running programs as a normal users despite having root or administrator rights. It’s good practice.
What you’re complaining about is someone else limiting your actions for you. Unfortunately, that’s the Android security model: the OS maker trusts itself but not the user.
If you’re a knowledgeable and responsible computer user, you have to suffer this choice of security model for the good of everyone else who may not have your technical chops. That’s how it is with Android.
If you don’t like it, you’ll have to hack into your own Android system (what most people do when they root their phone and install things to play hide and seek with applications that try to detect rooting), or come up with your own mobile OS that implements another security model and try to convince app vendors that your OS isn’t a security liability.
