The best counter to the quality argument I've seen is a comment on the Appcelerator blog:

The irony here is that Titanium apps are fully native and make use of iPhone-only features, and they’ll be rejected. Alternatively, you could open up a web view in Objective-C, and pop whatever slow, non-native crap you wanted in there, and not be in contravention of the rules!
