Dana,
When looking at iOS devices and its developer tool(s), instead of comparing iPhone et al with regular computers, compare it with its real equals: XBOX 360, PS3, Wii...
Like iOS devices, they are focused computing devices instead of general pourpose computing devices.
And just like XBOX, PS3, Wii... iOS development faces lots of restrictions. So what? I've never read you rant about XBOX nor PS3.
Of course, mentioning Apple brings clicks. Even if you did an apples-to-oranges comparison. (I know, bad joke)
Please do your homework before pointing fingers to a company that supports CUPS and WebKit projects among others.
Note: I've been using Linux since 1996, so I'm not an Apple Fanboy
Cheers
