I'm ... not sure that any of these three are installed on the device at ship time -- if this article said one way or the other, then I missed it.

However, I freely admit that I haven't tried to research that particular point, yet, so if someone knows one way or the other, please: cast a pebble of knowledge into the ocean of my ignorance.

If there are three stores installed on the thing by default, then I can see where the concern about confusion could come from.

Otherwise, I'd think that the simple fact that folks are going out of their ways and voiding their iPhone warranties by JailBreaking their iPhones (as the article writer alludes to) is a pretty good indicator that folks don't feel they'll be overly baffled by having more than one source to choose from.
