The law calls for this choice, the law doesn’t prohibit Apple from offering their preferred option.

That said, if you have a an article of the DMA that says otherwise, I’m all ears. It’s a bit hard for me to prove no such thing exists, other than to provide you with the full text of the DMA of course.

It does seem like malicious and petty compliance on Apples part. But that’s also the expected behavior of a corporation— so the EU just needs to keep up the rule making and clarification.
