    That’s true for billing and fees, but not for 3rd party app stores.

    The app stores inside Google Play would be 2nd party app stores.

      Yes it is.

      The app stores inside Google Play would be 2nd party app stores.

      It’s only 2nd party if there’s some sort of transaction involved, which there isn’t AFAIK.
