So want to take away my right for the app I legitimately purchased and downloaded to my PC for later installation ? This cloud BS has really taken its toll.

I think there is a misunderstanding. As I remember, even apps removed by developer will appear in the "Purchased" history. So what remains is a very narrow case where you'd actually lose an application you want.
Not true, some things are retroactively removed because they do not follow new guidelines from Apple. Or they got in and they break existing rules. Those are removed completely and only can be restored by back up.
