Yeah that seems like a no-brainer, but I suppose Musk wants tight control over how Twitter is used. It's harder to herd users around with third-party clients rendering user-undesired changes moot. It's not the first time we've seen something like this. Youtube is infamously harsh on alternative clients and Spotify went from the most developer-friendly streaming service to one of the least friendly… the former because third party clients can cut out ads, the latter because third party clients stymy efforts to drive users towards more profitable content instead of what they really want to listen to. Third party clients also don't really mesh with Musk's "everything app" aspirations but that's probably moot because I don't see Twitter becoming one of those any time soon.
