Having lived within the Objective-C community for most of my career, I
can safely assert that a whole lot of that community are some of the
best O-O folks I've ever worked with. And the most passionate around
O-O and high-quality software. Just my own observation. They may not
need you. And having seen Android apps and iPhone equivalents... I
personally have found the iPhone equivalents to be notably better in
usability.
Again, none of my statements above are in support of apple's policy -
just that they may get away with it because the above mitigates the
costs of what you're describing.

What bothers me is that I can't see Objective C as something worth
investing my time in or getting excited over, nor can I imagine that
it would be the language of choice for many developers at the top of
their game. A great deal of talent is going to be locked out here,
and I suspect this is the start of the end for innovation on the
iThingie. From this point forward, the primary motivator for future
apps will be ROI and not passion. Welcome to corporate mediocrity...
