I do not find the app review process to be a burden. It is just that our app has hardened security things, which makes it incompatible with the "normal" review flow. Also, while Apple has the manual review process as their default solution, it is actually more developer-friendly than Google's automatic process. Google's process might take several days before they send system-generated message that the submission was rejected. And when you submit a reply to the rejection, it takes another several days before a human reacts to it. With Apple the reaction time is usually within 24 hours…
