As seen in the results of the EPIC vs APPLE law suit, the results from here https://www.cnbc.com/2021/09/10/epic-games-v-apple-judge-reaches-decision-.html states that -->

Apple will no longer be allowed to prohibit developers from providing links or other communications that direct users away from Apple in-app purchasing. Apple typically takes a 15% to 30% cut of gross sales.

If EPIC can get the judge to at least win this part, then isnt it even easier to win this case? -->

Apple currently restricts developers from using other web frameworks other than Webkit. Because of this restriction, all Browsers on iOS use WebKit. And while forcing developers to not use their *own code/framework*, they also refuse to implement basic features like PushNotifications for PWA (web apps), a feature that is needed by hundreds of thousands of apps, and that has already been implemented on Android.

Question: If EPIC can win part of their Suit, then how is this case not a valid one? Either they allow developers to use their own WebFrameworks OR they allow push notifications for PWA apps (a much needed feature).

A good case?
