Why should Apple be in the business of providing a proprietary messaging service when many alternatives already exist in the market like you said.

The clear reason why they are bundling this service with their existing products at a loss is to expand their market share at the expense of interoperability.

This bundling is clearly an antitrust issue, I have a hard time believing all these arguments defending the wealthiest corporation on Earth aren’t being deliberately obtuse.

It's not an antitrust issue because Apple is not a monopoly. They have minority marketshare in all of the markets they operate.
