Arguing that Apple is illogical or ought to be smarter or is shooting itself in the foot... A waste of electrons.
In my experience, employees at Apple care very much what users and developers are saying. Many of them read Marco and Gruber. Quite a few even read the Apple support forums. Although they can't publicly respond to them, it helps inform their thinking about future decisions.
Remember when Apple reversed its decision on 3rd-party developer tools and languages? Rational feedback and criticism can work.
