That seems overly strict. I assume you’re not eating apple after apple for the amygdalin to do any harm, but then I also don’t assume you’re eating apple after apple for you to do any harm by just chucking it (without the sticker) somewhere out-of-the-way. I eat so closely to the core that people think it’s weird, but the core itself is physically uncomfortable to eat.
The Rocky Mountains are a good example. Cold, dry, and a high elevation (reduced oxygen). You are told in those places explicitly to pack out everything because it won’t decomposes.
Desert environments can also have the same issues just due to the dryness.
The truck i learned is to eat the apple from the top down, working your way through the core of less of it into a bite and makes it much less offensive, plus you don’t have to finish your apple snack by eating the ‘trash’ last

Depends on the environment. In some places you can throw an apple core and it will be gone in a week. In some places it can take years.
It all depends on the local environment and ecosystem
Got any examples handy?
Anywhere with lower animal or microbial activity.
