You're right. It does make apple more money. I don't even think it's a coincidence.
Because people could use whatever web browser they wanted and tons of people experienced 3-5 hour battery life, I imagine a lot of them would ditch iOS thinking that the iPhone was the problem.
And Apple would lose money.
There are some things Apple does that are very blatantly self-serving. I think there's are VERY reasonable explanations for this one (power usage and security being two).
