I’m late to this, but the real point that should be made is that Apple does not allow this functionality for any developer on the App Store, just themselves. Developers have to respect the free trial period even if the user cancels, but not Apple.

As much as I enjoy Apple products, it’s very clear this is just another example of the privilege they provide themselves compared to third-parties. It doesn’t affect me since I’m not subscribing to any of Apple’s service offerings despite using all Apple products, thus it doesn’t bother me either, but I can see why some might be.
