I'm not sure that's true. I believe I can create an iOS app and sell it outside the Apple app store without running afoul of the dev kit TOS.
Of course, it's crazy hard to distribute outside the app store since you're restricted to people who have jailbroken their device or people who can connect their device directly to a computer running the dev kit, but it's possible.
After thinking about it a few days, I believe Apple will eventually back down on this requirement for iBooks Author. It doesn't matter much to me personally, but I would like to see that happen.
