Is sideloading still better on Android than iPhone?

One of the major selling points of Android used to be its ability to sideload easily, but now Android is not allowing sideloading apps from unverified developers. Meanwhile, iPhones can easily sideload any app from any developer by downloading the .ipa file and putting it into LiveContainer. The drawback is that only 2 apps can be installed outside of LiveContainer, when not all apps work in LiveContainer. Is there still an advantage to Android sideloading over iOS sideloading, or is iPhone becoming the new Android in terms of openness to software installation?
