Let's hope so; although having made a blanket statement I don't quite see
how Apple will get out of part of it without having to rescind all of it.

The whole thing looks as crude as gang warfare between Apple and Adobe;
but, as in all cases of gang warfare, others get injured by flying glass 
and so
on.
