If you have to follow Apple terms then they are, by definition, deciding if you can provide certain functionality to your customers.
I'm sure Adobe could make the same argument to Apple. If you only do what's in our interests then we'll probably update our 3rd party libs within a reasonable timeframe. And don't bring up that one time we didn't bother supporting something in your API, that's just one feature out of thousands we did support.

It's just that there are no "your" customers anymore. Apple owns them all! Whether it's in your best interest? It depends on how big or small you are...
