Sounds like something that would instantly get you banned from the app store if it got noticed.

No, it isn't. A number of developers have done this.

  • Good thing Apple is well-known for consistently and fairly applying its own App Store rules across multiple, similar apps...

    • You're missing the point. We know that countless developers, including the author of the blog post, have received App Store rejections of submissions. On the other hand, to my knowledge, exactly zero developers have ever been banned from the App Store for doing what the commenter claimed would instantly get you banned.
