> As they point out at the very bottom, all their arguments apply to all third-party sign-ons, so they're removing Facebook as well.
Nope, some of them also apply to Facebook, and Facebook has the additional destruction of privacy concern. They have to remove Facebook or support Apple too because of the policy and have chose neither instead of both.
Some of their concerns specifically don’t apply to Facebook/Google/anything directly tied to your real email that you’d otherwise choose to sign up with. You add a bit of complexity to your database to record different login types, but you can easily reconcile them to an existing user if the emails match, and provide the features they want like searching for a user by email.
