Funny Side Note: Google lets users comment before download of an app is complete. This results in significant number of Comments saying "Download too slow". App Developers can't do anything about how fast apps are downloaded :).

I was actually thinking about using these red herrings in other applications, specifically dota2. Users can report others, but abuse this by reporting others for being, what they believe, merely poorer (than themselves) at playing the game. Creates a little signal to noise problem.
It would be an interesting experiment to create these report types ("Bad at the game", for example), but completely disregarding the report against the user. If anything, it could be used against the submitter themselves.
It's an interesting thought - red herrings as a UI concept.
Fortunately, Apple is adding new functionality ("App Thinning") to iOS 9 to strip unneeded stuff out from the bundle that the Store sends the device.
