Can't help but think Horses brought a lot of this on themselves. Everyone has these forms you fill out to self-rate your game, and both Steam and Epic said there were errors in there. So the three choices are:
1. They didn't take it seriously.
2. They didn't really know what was in their own game.
3. They knew they were on the edge and tried to understate things.These are all bad things for any game, but if you're deliberately making something that pushes the boundaries, these all seem bad?

4. they rated for what they thought was correct, but the reviewers on the corp side had a different opinion
In the Steam case, it seems one scene in particular could be misinterpreted, and it was changed, but the reviewers refused to re-evaluate the game after the change.
This, plus the inconsistency in the Epic rating (an M reported to the studio that was later transformed into AO), does not suggest foul play on the studio side, but on the store side.
