As an Apple customer, I will lose value from my purchase if iOS was required to have additional (non-Apple controlled) AppStores. This change cannot be made retroactively to my previous purchases.

The law (if it ever exists) should only apply to new iPhones and Apple should let users decide what they want.

Unlocking extra AppStores would likely also be more expensive than a locked in iPhone because of Apple’s ROI from the controlled AppStore. I don’t want to subsidize other people using a non-Apple controlled store when I know I wouldn’t.

I'm not sure what value you're supposed to be losing if different app sources were allowed? And yes the proposal was the option for a user to be able to use other app stores not that users had to use other app stores.

As far as the subsidization again I'm not sure I follow, you're paying the subsidization today and the option to continue paying subsidization isn't what's changing.
