There no one to support here. If Epic was to force some kind of change here, expect Epic Pay in every Unreal game whi h may have benefits in the short term but how long does that ever last?
How are they competing? Either the court rules that what Apple is doing is lawful, and is the single payment provider, or they decide it’s not, and Epic becomes the single payment processing provider for unreal games.

This seems like an unjustified assumption that Epic would attempt to leverage any monopoly they had on game engines to create a monopoly on payment processing. They haven't done this on desktop where they (up to legal issues) could, so I don't see why you think they would on IOS.
Moreover, there is competition between game engines and gamedevs are not a captive audience to quite the same extent as consumers are.
Moreover, if epic wins and they attempted this they would have literally established the precedent for Apple to sue them in return.
