EU Kids Act impact on repos like flathub?

Please correct me if I'm wrong here!

The EU Kids Act proposal uses the DMA definition of an app store "a type of online intermediation services, which is focused on software applications as the intermediated product or service", and argues that these need age verification.

Unless I'm misreading something, that would include flathub and all similar repos. I guess a threat of a 6% of turnover fine wouldn't do much, but still.

Please tell me where I'm wrong here!
