>otherwise developers will implement workarounds to avoid charging in the App Store altogether.
The Windows store has plenty of applications despite having fees (5%).
As an aside- to me that seems like an important differentiating factor. Apps must pay a fee to be on these platforms. Who do they pay the fee to? Whoever they pay a fee to shouldn't be allowed to also have apps on there since this is unfair and anti competitive. Fees do not negatively affect Apple but they negatively affect competition.
