This is a problem with Android, not Facebook. iOS asks for permissions "on-demand", not when the app is installed. And everything can be denied and you can still use the app.

New Android apps do that too. Unfortunately older apps ask for all permissions from the start, but I assume they will deprecate that eventually.
