Well, this is the ESRB. They really can't out and out block the product. Their power is VERY limited. Even if it WAS included from the start, I'm fairly sure that the game would have got an M rating anyway. The current scandal over the hidden content wouldn't have happened.
As was pointed out, this isn't a first by any means. This stuff has been done in many games before this happened.
And why shouldn't they be allowed to consider making all sorts of extra stuff for the game? What's the harm in at least trying things out? They were in the privacy of Rockstar Studios, and should be allowed to do whatever coding they want there.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
