Unfortunately, Apple has the resources, both legal and financial, to tie that up in the EU courts for decades.
We'll see what happens
What if I told you one of those two can make new laws?
In one afternoon the Commission+Parliament can change the basis of whatever case Apple wants to fight. And they are up against Vestager - she makes multinational software companies bend the knee twice before lunch.
You're underestimating what EU can get gone when they're motivated to get it done.
