I see it as Apple allowing a facade around their browser. You can't really call Chrome on iOS as "Chrome" if it's still just Safari under the hood. It's like putting Ferrari body on a 2010 Honda frame. Is it a "Ferrari" or is it really a "Honda"?

No, I do not think it's fair to say that Apple allows other browsers, and neither does the DOJ.

People get confused by this because "engine" is being used too loosely (to mean totally different things).
