I don't think that's it. I am also on iOS, and the G&M and Economist apps control access based on your offline subscriptions. And many TV channels, such as TSN and Sportsnet, also control access based on your cable subscription.
But do those same services offer you the opportunity to sign up for the service through the app using apple pay (and giving apple a 30% cut).
This was the fundamental issue that services seemed to have with the apple TOS...which Epic games took the nuclear option on.
