If you like to tinker with your own system, that’s fine with us. However, if you change things like stylesheets and icons, you should be aware that you’re in unsupported territory. Any issues you encounter should be reported to the theme developer, not the app developer.

Would have been better to frame it this way.

I mean, the full letter seems like a lot more than that. There's complaints about 'branding', and 'identity', and 'intent', most of which strays away from supportability and into the realm of concerns about control.

That’s what I was saying, they would have been better off framing this as a support issue. Everything else they touched on was more than unnecessary

My apologies, I misread your comment then.

The support concerns are definitely warranted in some cases.

That doesn't "generate publicity" in an asinine manner. Rejected.

Except that it would be like the meme where a guy shoots the app and then says "How could the app's developer have let this happen?"
