You are wrong. As described in the OP if you buy EV certificate($70) [0] you are all set.
>> I'm not aware of any situations where Apple has declined to offer a developer certificate
I can see that. Still there are such cases. Monopoly on the approval process is bad anyway. Even if acting in good faith, mistakes happen.
