so... they're not rejecting cross-platform apps because they're cross-platform, they're rejecting it because it either a) uses non-public APIs, or b) the internals share method/class names with non-public APIs...?

Correct. Their automated system is rejecting the builds. It seems to think they're using private APIs. This problem seems to be affecting users of all the major cross platform solutions, but it might not be exclusive to them. Edit: This tweet is theorizing that it's an issue with WkWebView https://twitter.com/ThomasVidas/status/1533936319596007425

So Apple is undermining the productivity of maybe millions of devs and related businesses just to inflate a few points in some marketing/pr metric shown in some presentation slide?

God, this sure is the most evil conspiracy theory I've ever heard.
