For 4 reasons:
- Help developers predict as early as possible if their app will be banned, since Apple will only consider your app at the final stage and won't give any detailed specifications.
- Educate consumers about which functions not to expect from their iPhone any time soon.
- Educate competing platforms developers about their advantage over the iPhone.
- Make Apple understand that they are doing the same mistake they did with the Mac about 20 years ago (yeah right).
