For everyone rejoicing in this thread, there’s no way Apple will allow this outside the EU. From the article:
We also found references to a region lock in this API, which suggests that Apple could restrict it to specific countries. This wouldn’t make sense for MDM solutions, but it does make sense for enabling sideloading in particular countries only when required by authorities – such as in the European Union.
I want side loading as much as the next guy, but Apple will only do the bare minimum to appease the EU regulations. Suck for those of us outside the EU.
Not sure the UK would be a valid option, the laws that the EU are passing now aren’t making their way to the UK anymore so if Apple wanted to be thorough they’d block it in the UK too

Just move to the EU and you won’t have that problem.
Will setting language to UK be enough?
On that line of thinking Ireland might be a good choice - they speak English and are still in the EU.

Ah, right.
We don’t know yet, but the rumor mill says the setting will be geo locked. So probably not.
