You're making excuses for him. Oh, and the iPad has, erm, heat issues (sigh).

"he doesn't have the view that apple's appstore isn't destroying the whole world just by its very existence unlike yourself "

Lie.

"they know the costs and limitations apple set from the outset"

No, they do not. Apple keep on changing their limitations and many of them are not documented - and moreover they can and have changed the rules retrospectively, removing thousands of applications out of the blue one day. This is, once again a good part of the issue. Sigh.
Without going back over old ground

so in terms of this section I have quoted, the point is that Developers KNOW Aplle may retrospectively do all of that or just decide they dont like the name of the app and remove it!

YOU know that so why do developers not? Answer is that Developers DO know all of that and yet they still choose to develop for it.

thats what is meant when we say 'they(developers know the costs and limitations from the outset'

Apple have done this sort of thing so many times how anyone could claim that a new developer would not know of the risks/limitations of Apples app store is bewildering to me.
