For a lot of people Apple is the ecosystem they access everything through, including payment processing. That cuts both ways, but Apple has shown a clear preference for protecting user privacy when they could have chosen to do otherwise, presumably because it makes them more money in the long run.

Why would that suddenly change in Netflix or some other company's favor at Apple's direct expense?

It's not in Apples expense, it's actually in it's benefit, your keys would be in their system, and impossible for anyone (including you) to get them out of it.

So you are now locked in to the apple ecosystem forever. You now need Apple to watch Netflix from your Samsung TV.
