Maybe my market prediction skills are awful or I am simply not good at seeing the bigger picture, but this looks like a terrible decision.

At a time when everything and everyone is keen to open up their ecosystem for developers to produce added value (perhaps at the cost of quality), Apple is adamantly moving in the opposite direction.

Savvy market decision or xenophobic control or something else?

Apple takes 30% of app market, now it wants to do the same with accessories.

Why would I buy an Apple product? Because they are cheaper? Nope. Because the use open standards? Nope. Because it's faster. No again. Because it is shiny? I'm sold.
