Wait, what the hell am I thinking? Even if is deliberate, and even if "$$$!!" did excuse everything, it *still* doesn't even make a shred of sense anyway: They *already* offer a free API which can be used for any of the different forms of interop I was suggesting. So they're *already* ok with all of what I suggested. Locking out interop is *not* part of their business model. They've just implemented that interop in a colossally dumb way, that's all.
