This policy is so frustrating for me.
I’m from the US but live in another country.
There are so many apps that are only available in one country or another so I effectively have two phones just so I can access all my banking apps and some streaming stuff.
You can create another Apple ID in the country you need. I am a Canadian in the US and couldn’t change the country of my Apple ID because I have active subscriptions (another idiotic limitation) I created a second ID with a US address and CC. Downloaded US-only apps just fine and didn’t lose my Canada-only ones either.
