Here's what's TRULY unbelievable about today's App Store policy update to """allow""" xCloud and Stadia, that you can really only appreciate if you've been following the wacky decisions of Apple on how to awkwardly handle everything to do with games... a

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away the interactive fiction publisher Choice of Games released tons of truly fabulous gamebooks on the App Store. (My favorite is Choice of the Dragon- https://www.choiceofgames.com/dragon/ ) They packaged each of these gamebooks as individual downloads.
Each of these gamebooks was written by a talented author in ChoiceScript, and often featured incredibly complex choices and changes in narrative surrounding those choices. I truly never played a bad one. In early 2018, Apple began rejecting their new releases as "spam."
Apple cited 4.3 in the App Store guidelines, specifically telling Choice of Games that their separate apps are "too similar," even though each of them were their own truly unique narrative adventure. To Apple, books with words on a page and choices are all just the same I guess.
Apple held firm on the decision to block Choice of Games from releasing individual books, instead forcing them to rapidly develop an omnibus app that could serve as the singular container for all of their titles since individual skus were no longer allowed.
This was a complete nightmare for Choice of Games as their releases were at a complete standstill until they could develop this new container app that Apple was forcing them into. It also created a huge support headache as you can tell by the FAQ- https://www.choiceofgames.com/omnibus-faq/
With this in mind, it's really amusing that Apple's "solution" for xCloud and Stadia being "allowed" is having them spam the App Store with what could be quite literally hundreds of viewer apps for all the different games, particularly with the secondary App Store-only versions.
