  I don't think the latter is tecnically possible, unless they
completely re-design the OS. After all, "sideloading of non-Windows
Store software" involves just a bunch of files (.exe, .dll, etc.) and
some installation procedure/script/tool/<whatever>, if any.

  What are they going to do? Prevent people to download files and put
them in the appropriate folders (Program Files, ProgramData, etc.)? I
don't think so.
