How is it competition when you only have one place to get it? Isn't that just a monopoly? Sure it's temporary, but there's nothing competitive about "buy here or nowhere."
I don't think that's the same thing as a monopoly. Or at the very least it's not nearly as bad. The presence of Epic on the market has been great for developers, because they can get good deals at epic AND Valve has been forced to reevaluate their prices.
