What has trust to do with it? Either you follow the rules within the laws or not. You can’t distrust preventively without them making a mistake with their new developer account – after all I can understand.
Would your logic apply to a pedophile applying for a job as a child care worker? Past is prolog.
Except this isn’t not a pedophile applying for a job. Your comparison is not relevant legally speaking.
Also, even in your flawed comparison the person’s rights based on the past are relative. You cannot cancel someone for everything, for ever.
There are rights afforded to both parties. Are you sure that Apple does NOT have the right to refuse to do business in the future with a party who breached a contract with them?
Requiring a company not owned by the government to do business as the government demands is a hallmark of fascism. Benito would be proud.
Or the hallmark of one protecting its citizenry. The government demands fair treatment and wages for the company's employees. The government demands the company not utilize child labor. They demand that said company doesn't pollute the air we breathe and the water we drink.
Those would be regulations applied evenly to all companies. What the EU has done here is to create special groupings in order to apply rules to specific companies that other companies in similar business are not held to.

What seems apparent is that "gatekeeper", is specifically aligned with Big Tech"; all the other "gatekeepers" of lesser size in the lower orders, such as Spotify, as an example, are irrelevant.
Just words on a piece of paper, or worse, words in a cloud.
The amount of trust is irrelevant. The question is if Apple has the last word here because Epic could well try to throw a discrimination card into the soup.
Is this, for example, the same as the right of admission to a bar?
No shirt, no shoes, no trustworthiness, no service
