This is what happens when your organization's focus on user experience eclipses its focus on the user. Apple has allowed a very exacting vision of Notification Center, one ostensibly made to keep the iOS experience consistent, to trump the actual user convenience of having a particular kind of tool within it.
It's this maddening, self-sabotaging dedication to singular vision at Apple that scares off developers from trying genuinely innovative things on iOS.

Developers do all sorts of innovative things on iOS, and minor constraints like this are unlikely to deter them. The "pull-to-refresh" action we all know and love first appeared in Tweetie for iOS -- it became so popular, Apple turned it into a first-class control. Same with the "hamburger menu" if I recall correctly.
