I think that some of points are valid - especially the direct contact with the consumers. But the grand prize that Epic wants, the ability for anyone to put App store on iPhone, I hope that will never happen. I don't care about Epic, but the moment when that is allowed is the moment when three app stores into existence - Google's, Microsoft's and Facebook's. Most people can't avoid using software from these three companies, and right now, on iPhone, Google, FB and MS can track people only when their app is active. With always active app stores the ability for tracking and fingerprinting is much, much bigger, and would negate all recent privacy stuff from Apple.
