Apple aren’t objecting to tips. They’re objecting to the zap button underneath each piece of content. And they’ve had a rule that specifies you can’t do that for some time. Their rules are maddeningly complex but this one is right there in plain sight:

What happens if a simple like triggers such a "monetary gift"?

What if you have a bot running somewhere, listening for your likes, and each time you like a note it finds the LN Address of the author and tips some sats.

Would Apple ban likes?

Would Apple even whether this is happening or not?

They’re won’t ban what they don’t know about or don’t understand.

That’s actually one of the advantages of tiny micropayments like zaps - there’s no visible UX! Can’t do that with larger payments that require explicit user consent.
