If you try to create a new iOS/macOS software project and sign it with a "com.apple." prefix in the bundle ID, Apple's system blocks it… for example.

It's pretty clear this type of ID'ing is an issue in general, unfortunately. Companies often protect themselves as a band-aid but not others in the same situations since the problems aren't frequent enough to warrant a design change. So, when it does become a problem, it could end up being a deep one.
