The acceptable punishment part is when Apple closes the Fortnite developer account.

The unacceptable retaliation is that Apple threatens to close the developer accounts of everyone working on the Unreal Engine, which is used in millions of projects in addition to Fortnite.

What Apple is doing here is akin to mafia punching your sister to get you to pay up.

Why closing Fortnite developer account is acceptable? If they have one app that was banned for 'violating guidelines', and another one that doesn't violate anything, why should the second app be removed, too? Because the unruly developer must be punished?
