Because Apple wants to ensure the apps are fully tested to be sure that they're compatible, so that they don't end up with...er...bricked..iPhones...oh wait...they did that themselves didn't they...? Well, they also wouldn't want it to happen to Touch's, I mean can you imagine? A nonfully QA'd program for that, things showing up...where...they shouldn't...oh wait...that happened when iPhone references showed up on the Touch didn't it?
So...Apple wants to keep the QA in house to ensure that they get the profit and they can ensure the programs work, only they don't QA the product...makes sense...profit, profit, profit, that's the AppleSoft way.
