Generally, developers I have seen that seem to want their own payment solution (which is not all developers, but the ones that matter here obviously) this is a good thing, because it lets them be in control of when refunds are done. Until now all app developers had to throw up their hands and put up a line on their website asking customers to contact Apple, which was obviously a poor experience and increased friction even in cases where a refund was desired by both the developer and user.
