It's almost as if it isn't a payment processing fee at all but a platform fee that enables Apple (or Google) to make money on "free to play" apps with in-app purchases.
I can definitely see why a developer like Epic would want to pay platform fees for Fortnite to Apple and Google that are lower than what they currently pay to Sony, Microsoft or Nintendo.
