- You are an app that is powered by network effects (n^2, see Andrew Chan's Cold Start problem - really good book)

- Half of your users use Apple, regardless of what you believe is a good platform.

- n_1 = n/2 means your network effect is one fourth, which since you have a cold start problem makes the app unusable and people leave

So regardless of the wishes and opinions, unfortunately it is not feasible to ignore Apple users.

Apple just cancels you. You won't have Apple users anyway. (You looses time and money for putting effort to develop the app and make it approved.)

This simply renders your cold start calculations irrelevant.
