Without knowing where you got the link to the PDF, is there any reason why you linked to a policy document that is a year old and says on the first page, "Applies to: Windows Mobile™ 6.0, 6.1 and 6.5" rather than 7?

Does this leave Android-based stuff as the only smartphones with freedom of expression for apps?

Content that depicts or suggests prostitution.

See, today, just because it's there and free, I DLd an app that has the complete Sherlock Holmes on it. I guess this won't be allowed on Windows, there're street prostitutes depicted.

Wonder what other classics they've ruled out?

From reading the blog of a parent with an autistic child, and what I've read elsewhere, it seems plausible to me that autistic children do tend to have food allergies and gut problems.
