Thats all, he said nothing else.
Its very hard and challenging to fail an apple refund, 2 years of experience is not needed to be successful. Empty box + no damages/tempering and no pre signature is all you have to know, nothing else. I don't need your money brother, and I don't want to chargeback the OP, but hopefully we can avoid this in the future if it was ever to happen again. As for the terms of service, it's common sense; if OP does something to sabotage the refund, how shall I be responsible for that? That makes no sense.

You have good points but I directly did not tell OP to "answer his phone" as usually that rarely happens and I don't mention that to everybody until they actually call, so I guess thats my only mistake which I could improve on next time. However, its common sense, when someone Is calling; they are calling you for a reason. Op had his phone on do not disturb and did not bother to pick up. When we called apple, they said he did not pick up the phone, and then this guy started justifying why he couldn't pick it up. If they said something else, such as investigation team has denied the request, then I agree that would 100% be my problem. However, clearly, when called they said you did not pick up the phone when called. That phone call could of been very important, such as Box inspection date. For cases like these, they do not email when they want to inspect the box, but there could be virtually any other case for their call.
As for your MM granting thing, if I could suggest something, I would highly suggest that someone else who is not a competitor deal with "scam reports" done against other competitors in the future, that way it wouldn't be any bias at all.
