It's hardly "backstabbing" to allow an additional feature that users want that has no negative consequences for Apple whatsoever

I certainly thought it was a stretch to call it "backstabbing", but of course that's not Apple's choice of language. Really though, if you get rejected specifically for a certain feature, then secretly enable it anyway and try to slip it past the reviewers... obviously Apple cannot be expected to say that's okay. Even if you dislike the review process, surely you can't expect Apple's policy to be "it's okay to include functionality we've specifically rejected and hide it from us".
