Apple has a history of doing bare minimum compliance with regulation they don't like. Regulators have to treat them like a toddler, because that's how they behave when they don't get their way. They don't want competition, they don't want to give developers any kind of freedom, and they especially don't want any competing payment apps on their platform. Right now, Apple is testing the limits of what they can get away with. A small infraction here, removing a feature there, just seeing what triggers the regulators and what doesn't. Once regulators start investigating them, they'll just change their software to comply and get a minimal fine for the short period that they did get caught violating the law in. In a few years time, when the first fine is handed out and has been appealed on all levels of the court, we'll see what Apple will actually end up sticking with.
