To be fair to him, the one guy reviewing Mac App Store submissions probably doesn’t have a lot to do most of the day when work is slow at his other job except nitpick and argue with developers because his job at Apple is reviewing submissions for the Mac App Store.
Yeah I totally agree with you. They cannot prove their value without doing so.
That's a misaligned incentive from the perspectives of both Apple and developers. This should be improved. Otherwise, I don't want to waste any more time flighting with these pointless stuff.
Whenever I read stories like this I just think to myself how sad it is that people put themselves in positions where they're going to throw their time away.
Is there a repository of these stories? I'm thinking about starting one.

I also tried to be a "good Apple citizen". Last weekend, I even appealed via their "official" channel.

We're glad they finally figured out this thing. But the cost of my time/life is too high.
