I always interpreted this clause to mean that you can't present a screen
asking for a license screen, not a screen showing the EULA. But I suppose
that it could be interpreted in this fashion.
What's funny is that Xcode - distributed through the Mac App Store - does
show a license screen at first launch. This would mean that Apple is
breaking its own rules, if in fact that clause means what you say.
But yes, the asker should clarify whether this is for the MAS or not.
