I don't get it. You don't have to "start over" you continue from where you left off. Only some members of the community need development skills.

Secondly, users are harmed by these actions as there will be fewer developers making apps for them, plus, Apple are potentially stifling innovation.

It's on purpose. Apple willfully sacrifices innovation for control and UX. Users accept it for UX.
