What does the following mean?

> Apple is entirely within its rights to terminate Epic Games, Inc.'s developer account and all related functionality, but Sign In with Apple will continue to function for Apple customers for the next two weeks.

"Within rights to terminate [...] all related functionality" is completely different than "Apple HAS TERMINATED [...] all related functionality". Upon terminating "all related functionality", SIWA will still work for two weeks, but no where in the letter said they have "terminated all related functionality". Apple chose to keep it alive.

Tim Sweeny took this and misled the public saying "oh yeah, Apple is terminating it for sure" which is not the case.

SIWA will still work for two weeks - that doesn't imply Apple might have terminated SIWA two weeks after that?

SIWA will still work for two weeks should Apple decide to "terminate all related functionality". Apple did not decide to "terminate all related functionality".
