I would hope that this ends with Apple being pressured to make changes. Whether Apple will comply in a way that meets the spirit of the requirement is an entirely different question. I can see them allowing other engines, hamstringing them or otherwise adding friction, and blaming it on “security” reasons.

It is indeed a risk. A risk that the CMA is well aware of though, and among the remedies considered are also present: - "mandating access to certain functionality for browsers (including supporting web apps)"; - "requiring Apple and Google to provide equal access to functionality through APIs for rival browsers". All this remedies combined should, in theory at least, prevent Apple from obstructing other browsers.
