Not that hard to understand. Judge Cote specifically forbid any considering of Amazon in the trial. These appeal judges are looking at the entire scenario.
Without considering Amazon...one could say "Apple's actions are anti competitive in that they raised prices." Considering Amazon, one could say that Amazon was limiting competition and that Apple's actions had a net positive effect on competition.
The phrase one judge used was something like "looks like the mice had to gang up to put a bell on the cat".
