Are you actually complaining that the reviewer was performing some QA-like functionality? That's surprising. You may also be misinterpreting. Quickly going through an entire app (which is what I'd expect a reviewer [who's actually testing the app] to do) is necessarily going to involve lots of really quick pushes and pops of VCs and swipes and whatnot. So no, I don't think the reviewer was trying to find some pretext to reject you. That doesn't even make sense. Why would a reviewer need that?

Perhaps I did misinterpret. However the given reason for rejecting the app suggests there's something else going on behind the scenes. "Your app doesn't have enough native iOS functionality" is obviously BS when the app's primary navigation is a tableView, uses the accelerometer and in general is filled with native iOS functionality.
Maybe the app's use of Google maps was frowned upon because of some tense relationship between the two companies. So instead of rejecting the app for "using Google maps because we don't feel comfortable with that" the reviewer tried to find a crash. When they couldn't they gave me the hilarious BS reasons. Hence a pretense to reject the app could make the reviewer's life easier.
