      The biggest reason is most likely that the cases had different judges.

        Does that answer have anything to do with the great vehicular hobo massacre of 1988?

        No?

        You’d be surprised how often it’s relevant, but kept virtually a secret.

      Apple produces hardware for their walled garden, whereas Google imposes their terms on third parties. I can’t speak to how this works legally, but thats the main difference as far as I understand.

        It’s no longer an excuse for Apple. Since the EU’s ruling they now have to allow third party stores there: https://support.apple.com/en-us/118110 and of course they’ll fight tooth and nail against it here, the infrastructure exists many of their previous arguments around not doing it are moot
