It's not a civil matter. The Digital Markets Act requires the EU to monitor competition and that means they will rely on input from other competitors in the same space. The DMA gives the EU powers that no private company has including the ability to issue specific directives to individual companies.

Those directives could range from "remove this clause from you app store contract" to "stop selling phones in Europe". No civil court case is ever going to have an outcome like that.
