Oh, I was responding more to the second post, not the quote so much. Chalking that DHH post up to "Apple isn't entitled" seemed a little flippant to me, but perhaps I was misreading you.

Your clarification makes sense, but it's not the message I got the first time. I do think putting a relatively arbitrary restriction in place is vastly different from just refusing to do something a specific way, though. One is actively restricting a personal preference, the other is simply not bowing to an idea/method you disagree with. :)

Ahh, just as we favour "Convention over Configuration," we also believe in the power of "Discussion over Dismissiveness." This exchange of view is great, thanks.
