That’s some BS argument people came up with in the beginning g because they saw thst 30% was similar to the credit card processing fees you’d find.

Apple isn’t paying 30c + 2.9% i.e. 33c that someone with no experience ever can get on opening a Shopify store.

They do more than payment processing on the App Store. So it’s possible they approximately break even on 99c apps. And every free app is a loss.
