At this point in time i'm gonna have to just say "Apple doesn't really know what it wants"
it doing dealings here left, right and center with no strong angle in anything..... Based on what it thinks it is capable of, and what Apple know what it will do with it by "locking it down" clearly Apple doesn't care much about accessibility here in some areas.
Apple would rather treat "lock down " over anything, including "ease of access" is seems now too.
So Apple, exactly what is *your* angle. Could happen to any company... but particularly Apple.
