It's unrelated.
OP is making the point that app numbers mean nothing, given that someone can just find some RSS feeds and turn the handle to produce thousands of apps. Fine if BB wants to allow such apps, but it weakens the point of the CEO proclaiming the number in a keynote.
Apple does make some attempt to block blatant cookie-cutter apps, so I'd give Apple's app figure (900K) more credence on that basis. If apps like those 47K BlackBerry apps are allowed, maybe that's a Good Thing or not, but either way, it renders the app count completely arbitrary.
