I think Apples service margins include an unspecified amount from Google for being the default search engine on iOS.

And that’s a big fraction of their services. https://www.thestreet.com/investing/google-pays-apple-billio... estimates that at $9.48 billion over 2018.

That implies that App Store margins are lower than I estimated, and it’s costs higher.
