The DMA explicitly forbids that. There must be no cost, and no barriers to distributing apps to iOS users. Apple cannot, for example, force developers to sign up with Apple, pay additional fees, or use special certificates.
But required a non corrupt judge and a company the size of Apple's is going to sure to spend a few bucks here and there...
True but I feel confident the European Commission has excellent oversight. In this case the law is written so clearly that any attempt by a corrupt judge to provide Apple with dispensation would be immediately caught.
