Yes I also believe its a lousy case, but that what courts are for, to decide things. But Apple can easily point to all the times Epic agreed to the Agreement (my employer's large legal dept always reads any changes before agreeing), to the agreements Epic is fine with from the console companies paying the same percentage but did not sue, the long history of each and every clause in the agreement in the world of contract law (Apple has a billion lawyers I doubt they miss much).
Winning such a case based on complaining its an antitrust violation is rather quixotic and normally only a government would do this.
Maybe in the end both relent and the rate goes down, but I don't think Epic wants to pay anything and still be available.
