While what you are saying is true, those facts don't matter if the law has been broken. Apple's rules are not the law, it is a set of arbitrary rules which have to be enforced in the court of law. And Epic is currently trying to do just that, make the law say that those "arbitrary rules" are non-valid and anti-competitive. Even if it is the Apple ecosystem, "the Apple platform which brings value", if they engage in anti-competitive behaviour, they need to be dealt with. Some might argue that there were people who enjoyed using Bell Systems and were content with the value it was providing, it also had a "vertical integration" in the communications systems, and yet they were forced to comply with the anti-competitive laws (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakup_of_the_Bell_System https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breakup_of_the_Bell_System )
