Nobody (a small subset) uses that in the EU.
iPhones are a status symbol as they are in the US but only play a small part in here (65% Android).

The US alone has a 53% share for iOS.

I know all that. It's the reason why it's not considered by the EU. But doesn't address the fact that the is no reason for Apple to open up, unless I'm missing something
