Ask HN: Why doesn’t Apple allow torrent clients on the app store?

While torrent clients are often used for pirating, that’s not technically the stated purpose of the bittorrent protocol, it’s simply for P2P transfer of any files. You could technically email pirated content to a large group of people too, doesn’t mean it would make sense for Apple to ban email apps. Has Apple ever explained the justification for this?
