Seems like a pointless technicality. If somebody refunds my $100 app and Apple "keeps" $30 from me, that means the next person who buys my app only earns me $40. I've lost $30 either way.

Or if the same person buys the app again later (maybe using a different Apple ID) then you lose 60$ out of the money they would have paid for your app - to view it a different way.
