This is hardly out of the blue. Epic's CEO testified how they not only premeditated breaking their contract with Apple, but arranged a PR campaign around it and orchestrated a 'grass roots' effort at the same time. Blocking Fortnite updates on iOS devices was an inconvenience for users compared to terminating the use of an entire gaming marketplace due to the next round of vigilante contract violation by Epic.

Ok, but it's not like breaking a contract like this is unheard of. Apple did literally the same thing to Qualcomm, for example, back when they decided they didn't want to pay money for modems. "You said some bad words about us and decided that you didn't like the contract" is literally business. Companies are not people that you are doing a personal affront to.
