They don't care.
That might be it. Whatever the reason, it seems like a missed opportunity. Especially when they go out of their way to provide direct APKs to Android users who do not use Play Store.
They might have done their stats and figured out that only 0.0000001% of their users would benefit from it and there weren't much profit there to make.
One of the reasons for me not to switch, is because there is no Linux client.
If they had a contacts app for Android and a proton drive Linux client I would be 1,000% on board. I would switch basically everything over and be more than happy to pay for it. Useless to me otherwise
