I've bought "digital gold" quite a few times from apps (in India). So they could demand 30% out of that as well? Apple's greed is now getting to ridiculous leve

  Again, 30% is market rate across the board. You can find analysis on what a quality marketplace trusted by users costs, it's much more than people think. And the benefit to an app of being in a trusted market is high. In the US, public companies have a fiduciary obligation to shareholders to earn. It's unclear to me why Apple should keep money out of the pockets of teachers and firemen invested in them through pension funds, just to charge below market rates for the most trusted marketplace where devs make (by far) the most money.
