This would be true if Apple made the OS that ran on 90% of the available devices in the market. But they don’t; their OS runs on one device only, theirs.
I think furthermore its going to be hard to call any of this antitrust when Apple doesn’t compete in the application space directly. All developers are subject to the same restrictions, there are no favorites being played (not overtly anyways)
If anything was antitrust, it was apps for the old iPods - there was no clear cut way to get your software into the iTunes store, only a handful of developers got to play in that space, etc.
