Not sure why Google would block themselves server-side if they themselves wanted the current iOS 6 account-sync set up to continue. Apple doesn't really factor into it at all. Google breaking off into their own Calendar app is a possibility, but its not clear cut that they would do this since there's a definite "stickiness" to having the Calendar sync option pre-checked as soon as the user adds his/her GMail account.

Look, the announcement was clear that they are sunsetting the CalDAV API and if someone wants to continue using it, they need to make a request to Google, and explain why. (Via the form you linked to previously) One would hope Google has enough sense just to keep this working with no hiccups for Apple, but it also is not clear cut that they will from the information we've been given. (Or that Apple gives a shit either way) It's not like they are seeking feedback on how to improve CalDAV, they're moving away from it.
