I'm used to giving the benefit of the doubt to Apple, but this one needs to be explained. Is this fodder for new discovery in the Epic lawsuit? Due to the nature of that case, can Apple be compelled to provide information on this and all other non-public entitlements along with and who they are granted to and why? Is it reasonable to presume that Zoom was under an NDA on this, and it was an employee mistake bringing it up by name?

Seeing that Epic admitted they also got early access to APIs and beta features to test the Unreal engine, they can’t actually argue the point. It also came out in testimony that Epic asked for special deals with Apple.

It isn't. Apple can use private APIs and entitlements, while other apps can't. Those private APIs eventually become public or get replaced with something else entirely. So, this advantage is always temporary and can easily be explained by security or privacy.
