You should be more concerned with having a closed-source, non-peer-

apps I've downloaded for my Android phone never get installed because
as they install they want access to stuff that has NOTHING to do with
the app's supposed function (for example, I-Heart-Radio has absolutely
NO need to look at my address book). They get deleted as soon as they try to
install and I find out what trolls they are.

You should check out the "Xposed Framework" and the "XPrivacy" add-on that works with it. It's essentially App Ops on steroids. I can still install apps that want invasive permissions but block them from trying to use them at runtime.
