I can't help but wonder why this keeps happening. Rejecting this app seems a bit ludicrous to me. But I have to wonder if this has anything to do with Steve Jobs and Apple policies, or just some of the people who work at Apple enforcing the "Apple-way".
There are quite a few Apple fanatics out there. The ones who say Apple can do no wrong and the Apple way is the right way. They would do most things to make Steve Jobs happy. So it's not a giant leap to think some of those people have made it on to Apple's payroll and possibly hold senior positions at Apple.
So is this a case of Apple being a bit ridiculous with its policies, or people within Apple following the Apple-way and policies a little too closely? This might just be a staffing problem.
