this also holds true for chemical, biomedical researchers, mechanical engineers working in deep tech, software engineering is such an anomaly that it's hard to do income based lottery without overindexing on swe market

they did, judge told authors to get better representation to prove harm. I think it's dicey cause if anthropic loses then it could be catastrophic (i.e. if judge jury thinks reward is 5x of what the proposal is would mean they would need to raise a new round)

They still do it on maps (someone texts you address it ll only open in apple maps and even if you change default app you cant change that), idk if that's any different in europe

it's not customer acquisition though, Google can most likely get lot of users off safari to chrome for cheaper but issue would be that Apple would then get incentive to build search (and like apple maps, they can just embed it into everything without option to change default)
disclaimer: Googler here(not in search PA), this is my personal opinion.

It saves you the trouble when your order goes wrong and way easier to argue/negotiate, it's the same reason airbnb works (else why wouldnt you just exchange number with the host and rent it directly)

Most of zynga's losses are due to acquisitions they make, they are otherwise very profitable, recently they have been acting as venture capitalist than developer.
