> Can someone ELI5 why Apple is considered to be anti-competitive for not dedicating resources to assisting another business
(emphasis mine)
Nobody said anything about Apple assisting other businesses. They could easily just let everything be, but instead, Apple is going out of their way to prevent competition.
Imagine if your favorite Linux distro only allowed you to install software from their package repos, and you had to jump through tons of hoops to install software from outside their repos, and adding other repos was impossible.
I know you'd say "I'd just switch distros!", but in the mobile world, you effectively only have two choices.
