In the Medium article, the CEO claims the issue stems from them rendering pages on their servers using Chromium rather than WebKit.

On the face of it, this seems bizarre but I could definitely see how Apple has an interest in having their User Agent stamped on outgoing requests.

They weren't telling the truth about "superior virus protection" or Apple trying to protect Google ad revenue (Apple has supported third party content blockers in Safari for years), why should we believe they are telling the truth here?

Besides, Opera Mini does the same thing - Server side rendering - and has been on the Apple Store for years.
