Apple certainly allows a lot of free without in-app purchases apps on the App Store.

They don’t care that much about the 30% (which was the best deal ever for a phone app store when it came out) except how the App Store sells hardware.

This is simply not true anymore. I really believe when the App Store started, they did not see it as a profit center, but in the last 10 years, the bean counters took over.
