its a corp it cant just make claims and not follow on them

I don’t see why you think that. They can’t wrongly advertise a product, but this is far away from product advertisement.

Personally, I assume that there will be some flow, because you strictly need that for app development, but that they will try to make that as painful as possible for non-development use, because it helps to eliminate their competition.

Ultimately, this should even fall under anti-competition laws, but people have no trust in that actually being enforced, at the very least not in a timely manner before the competition is dead. The only instrument we have is shitstorms, so as long as there is any doubt, it is safer to keep the shitstorm brewing.
