I just explained on the next paragraph, but I'll gladly do it again:
The public API, full featured in order to create a working app, is open to everyone who follow TOS. The one that google uses for Android and iOS (for their own app!!!) is googles private one Google doesn't have to give access, it's their own product! So yes, their private API has more features, that's not the same as saying the public API is broken (and that doesn't allow to follow TOS as MS is saying). So.... what is it that's so difficult to understand?
So, if Microsoft Office is using a different Windows API than is available to competitors (it is their own product!), that is ok? I know this has been claimed at various point, usually as a harsh accusation, I'm asking if you think it is ok?
