That's not the issue. The TWA has been created specifically on the request of app creators (including me).
The problem is that users find PWA very difficult to install. Like massively hard. They are used to the "app Store installation model" - they search for stuff, they click install, they check for permissions and then apps are available in their dock.
This model breaks down in a PWA "add to homescreen" kind of experience. In fact, it is hard to explain what a "homescreen" is in vernacular languages.
The TWA is a massive jump in usability - publishers can now work using web technologies and users can still get the same experience. This is what will unlock web use on mobile phones.
