The judge in the Apple case also agreed with positioning iOS as part of the larger gaming market where Apple is acting just like game consoles. The judge even said the 30% was fair relative to the market. The anti-steering was a minor finding against Apple.

This isn’t to disqualify any of your other points, but because it keeps getting missed I’m going to include the missing context: The People’s Republic of China requires 5G phones going forward to support what they call “5G Messaging” and what we know as “RCS”. This is one of those it’s easier to comply and do it internationally than to only do it locally things, if you’re going to do it at all, and it costs Apple nothing additional by doing so.
