That sounds like "sticking it to them" to me. The alternative is that Apple lets them back on, stops paying for an expensive lawsuit, and gets extra revenue from fortnite.

Sounds like standard lawyer behaviour. They’re being paid by Apple to look after Apple’s interests.

Are you saying Apple execs have zero say in the strategy they choose to pursue regarding the spat with Epic?

Mobile Fortnite has been dying for over a year before all this started so not much of an income. Note: Most gamers move over to a non-mobile device for these games or at least a Nintendo Switch.
