I think you're being overly generous in ascribing the intentions of an entire company on this.
Most likely the real reason behind this is that some programmer in their employ who didn't know better hammered in "bogusapple.com" as the first thing he could come up with, committed it since it worked for him, and now a lot of people are trying to ascribe more complex intentions to Apple than that.

One has to assume they have strict development and testing guidelines, but you're right - it is possible that some programmer hammered this in, and the change slipped past the code review and testing phases.
