The market is LTE modems, not Qualcomm LTE modems.
If you define the market to be a single company’s offerings, when there are other companies that make similar products (Android and the Android App Store) then the concept of monopoly has become a tautology.
The problem some people are having goes back to the concept of the walled garden in the first place and general purpose compute devices.
Apple does not have a responsibility to provide general purpose computing smartphones that can run any software you want. If Congress wants to pass a law saying that they do, then fine, but it seems quite to stretch to claim that anti-trust law is designed for that.
