clearly no one here believes it's possible to comply with this order on such a compressed timeline, but how does the judicial authority believe it's in any way possible?
I guess I imagined that "store in a store" I involved some kind of API that allows third parties to integrate with the Google store and list its own apps along Google-vetted apps. If all it requires is that the Valve store app be listed in the Google play store, I guess that's not so hard.
As far as the time since the initial ruling, why would you spend immense resources implementing something that you were fighting in court?
Because you’re just using the courts to stall and prevent competition to generate profit. You know you’ll lose and the courts know you know you’ll lose.
This is an anti-trust ruling from the Competition Commission of India. Google has a dominant market position, while Apple's is minuscule in India. So they're probably not concerned about Apple.

Even if google was blinded by this, why exactly can’t this corporation let other stores in its store within a weeks time?
How complicated is this exactly in your opinion?
