I am curious what specifically drove this decision. It just feels like something inside of the Apple eco-system must have been breaking with the default behavior and this was their blunt work-around. As in, this feels less overt evil and more desperate band-aiding.
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
