there has to be some kind of lockout involved or every piece of crap will have to be picked apart. It's not clear to me from the article whether the fee is paid as part of the submission process or after the app is verified. If it's the latter, then the verified apps are paying the burden of cost for those that fail verification. If the fee is not part of the verification submission, then every POC app will have to be picked apart, and I'd guess the process wouldn't be too rigorous.
