"may not be used with apps sold on the App Store" probably just means "Apple will not approve an application which uses this cable for sale on the App Store".

But Apple approved the cable. Get the paradox?
Where does it say that Apple approved the cable? It seems to me like they're deliberately avoiding any step that requires Apple approval.
