Why is this the biggest salient? Because browser choice can *end* App Stores. Thoroughly and totally. And that's why Apple continues to fight real choice so damned hard. They're pulling out every stop -- including funding astroturf groups -- and risking every possible fine to keep true choice from emerging through a mechanism they don't control.

Small reversals like this are helpful, but Apple continues to geofence and degrade the potential of real browser choice. And that's a scandal.
