No, my point was that Android is open, Apple is not.
There may be some businesses out there who just don't want to go through all that bureaucracy and hoop jumping to do something new and interesting. Android gives them that possibility, Apple does not.
No, it wasn't. Your point was if you are business, Android might have an advantage because Apple 'sticks its nose in [your] affairs'. Yes Android is more open. Yes putting apps on your iPhone without the App Store is more of a hassle. But it is possible and relatively straightforward. And it's not what you said. Which is fine, lots of people don't know about Apple's alternative distribution programs. It's better to be wrong than to be a weasel, though.
Android is open, and that lets business do things even without signing up for some Apple-supervised Dun and Bradstreet-number-requiring enterprise program.
I never said nor implied that you can't, somehow, do stuff with the iPhone, just that it's a more invasive procedure, and a lot of businesses might not care for that. Also, there is a ton of stuff that you can do with Android because it is open from top to bottom that you will simply never be able to do with an iPhone.
That is going to be a win for some, and possibly many businesses.
Oh I do! Right now I'm calling you a weasel. For weaseling.
My point is this, again:
That's your weasel-point. It's not the point you brought up. Both small and large businesses can easily put their apps on the iPhone without the App Store.
I wouldn't have high expectations. It's par for the course for the people running http://pinboard.in. Honestly one of the only reasons I haven't bought an account.
