Why does a review, whose nominal purpose is to give the reader enough information about the product to make an informed purchasing decision, need to mention this sort of thing at all, ever?
Arguable how a device looks is part of that. In this case, there is more than a passing resemblance. Topolsky is defending the integrity of his bloggers, but the integrity is questionable if their reviewing skirts around undeniable facts. Doesn't matter if it's Apple or Fisher-Price!

I'd be rather surprised if there was anyone alive who hates Apple that much but has no idea what their products actually look like.
