But the key point is, how much consumer harm has resulted?

I am an iOS user. I like that iOS takes a heavy handed approach to the App Store and controls it completely.

I do not want developers to hav the option to have their own payments. Apple Pay is so easy and convenient.

I do not want developers to be able to distribute apps without Apple approval.

Apples policies probably result in developer harm, but anti trust law is to protect me as a user not you as a developer.

To be frank, I don’t really care that Apple is a pain to deal with. That is why I, the user, pay you, the developer to deal with them.
