Apple bans cross-compilers on iPhone OS4

After reading all the hoopla about Apple banning cross-compilers[1][2], I was holding out hope that maybe there was a rational reason for it.  So far, I’ve only seen one counterpoint[3].  It’s a terribly close-minded and selfish point of view; which I understand doesn’t necessarily make it incorrect.  I was just hoping for something more “feel good.”

I’m still searching for the silver lining to this.  Feel free to enlighten me.

    I read this thing on Vice tonight about how girls hate girls even when they’re friends and while all things women are forever hermetically sealed...
