You know what is draconian? removing a programming environment for children from the App store.

Yeah.. not to pick nits.. but the removal of Scratch was the removal of a Scratch player, not an actual programming environment itself..

.. I for one would love to see a Scratch development env on the current/next gen of mobile devices, though.

Your point stands, though.
