Electron apps cannot be submitted to the Apple store

Forgive me if I'm not understanding correctly, but in your description here it sounds like the problem is in how your organization functions around this, not in Apple's policies.

It's not really fair to expect Apple to resolve or work around your own organizational problems.

Why not? Microsoft does it all the time. So does Google, to an extend.

Apples inability to work with us is the primary reason we replaced thousands of iPads for school children with Chrome books. Eventually Apple caved to our needs, but it was way too late. Google were “what can we do to make this deal work for both of us?” from day one.

If a company is willing to do that, hooray!

What I'm saying is that it's unfair to expect it. As in, if a company is not willing to bend over backwards for you, it's not fair to condemn them for that. It's totally fair to praise their competitors who will, though.

I wouldn’t mind I had options, but I don’t. Instead we’re the ones to bend over backwards, as you put it, because Apple has a monopoly that we’re required to use.
