I've wondered about this and products like expo 'over the air' updates for React Apps etc. In theory does seem to infringe on these guidelines but are somewhat common in the iOS and Android eco-systems at the same time. I suspect an element of 'Don't ask don't tell' is being played out.

I also recall another guy -- who I think was openly advertising it as way to get around app store guidelines got taken down. JSONRoller or something my memory escapes me.
