Yes I remember this line as well, but unsure if it was James that said it or not. Could it have been Luca? was going to dig through history in the same post timeline. Nope.
This is the closest response matching up I think:
But these servers can’t be queried by non-blessed external applications. These servers are simulating the game. We can’t allow them to respond to any 3rd party requests without risking the performance-stability of the game.
If we published a 3rd party API it would need to be against a different set of services that were disconnected from the realtime simulation. We’d love to do this. And have plans and designs in place. But the development priority remains gameplay for now.
