I know for a fact that things like after effects softimage and others were used to make these animation designs.. What does this say then about apple and their apps like motion apature and final cut ??

Do they have to use only Apple software? Why would they? Do you use only Apple software? Does Apple make an application for everything? I don't think Apple has ever claimed that their apps can completely replace After Effects, Photoshop, Renderman, etc.

No but they dont show what is made with what,,, And they do tout motion as a big tool..

That's not what your original "point" was, but for the sake of arguement--It would be extremely disruptive to a presentation to stop and explain the technical aspects of how it was created.

The "show" is more penetrating when it looks like magic, and the audience feels more drawn into the experience when they forget about the man behind the curtain pulling levers.

Apple knows this...it's a show.
