If the judge rules that Apple has to allow Fortnite, it will get overturned. That’s a highly dangerous precedent to force a business to sell a product it doesn’t want to. This would be like a judge telling Walmart it had to sell a particular game or brand of cracker or brand of toilet paper.
Regardless of your thoughts about the other Epic / Apple legal battles, I hope people at least recognize that a government forcing a retail business to sell (give away) a product is anti-democratic.
Edit: Since a few people aren't understanding my comment, here's what I wrote in a different thread about this topic.
Apple doesn't have to allow Fortnite in. [If a judge is going to force Apple to, it's highly likely the ruling will be overturned after more appeals]. The company could exclude any given app for any given reason. A store doesn't have to sell any given product in the world. The store's owners could decide to not sell something just because they don't want to. While reasons might be petty, it is the right of the owners. Similarly, I don't have to allow any given person into my home. I can block people from entering my house for any reason I want to, even if I generally invite most other people in. This is especially true if I had previously invited someone and told them "Here are ground rules" and then that person completely disregards those rules and starts trying to burn my house down.
What this means is that Epic has no inherent right to have any given app in the App Store. Even for something as important as an App Store, I don't think we want Apple to have to allow any given app. I don't want to make a slippery slope fallacy, but if a government could force Apple to have to accept any given app, that's a potentially dangerous situation.
