I usually do not like these moves from Apple. For example, I strongly dislike all the new guidelines they added to comply with the introduction of alternative payment systems.
However, I'm on their side in this case. I run a business. If having a feature comply with some regulation meant implementing a whole infrastructure I don't have to serve a minority of customers, I would also abandon the feature.

I expect them to prioritise backward compatibility over spiting regulators and over itemised profitability considerations. They could have implemented this feature securely but they chose to use the opportunity to make a point instead.
