Was going to say this, I can't remember the exact figure but it was something crazy like 20% of net profit was from that deal.

TODO: find a link to the original article that mentioned it.

I’m aware of the difference between revenue and profit.

As a percentage of profit, the $20 billion was 17.5% of Apple’s operating profit in 2022.

I don’t think that has any material impact on something as established and as important as Safari.
