In hindsight, I suppose I should have just ignored the whole thing. I feel like I just grabbed a steak off the table and now a net is about to fall on my shoulders.

Calling it fear-mongering is just a way to dismiss it without giving any counter-arguments. I could tell you that you were burrying your head in the sand and we could continue on like that ad naseum, but that's what's really pointless here, not the speculation.
I don't see why it's such a stretch to speculate that once Apple copies the idea of an app store from one of their products to another, that they'd want to copy the philosophy behind it. It's a way for them to control both the content on their system and take a cut from everything sold on their system at the same time.
