Sounds like a script that went awry, misclassifying the app? If so, I have a feeling that when some engineer at Facebook wakes up and sees this tomorrow, the problem will go away ;)
FB, much like apple, is a closed off "our way or the highway" type company. It is utterly massive which not only gives it huge power, but makes it difficult to even find a human to rectify an issue. So I hope you are correct...but i doubt it.
