Do you have another source for the idea that Google is demanding a cut?
Google Play drops all subscription commissions to 15% from day one (Oct 2021)

Quote:
Following a program that Google started in March 2021, the company is now lowering commissions on all Google Play app subscriptions to 15% from the first day of service instead of after a year.

Google's previous commission on subscriptions was the same as Apple's — 30% for the first year, and 15% thereafter. Google says that 99% of all subscription app developers qualify for the lower 15% commission.

Additionally, it is cutting costs for participants in the Play Media Experience Program. App developers in that program, largely e-book vendors and streaming music services like Spotify, will have fees cut to as low as 10%.
Couldn't find anything about individual purchases yet.
