Epic v. Apple trial, Apple described Epic’s lawsuit as an “assault” on the entire iOS philosophy. One of the iPhone and iPad’s defining features is a curated ecosystem (or, from a different perspective, a walled garden).

Apple says that would damage the privacy and security that iOS is known for, making Apple spend more money to fix new problems that crop up.
