Interesting take.

I'd assumed situation was other way around - largely based Apple's continued omission of desktop class functionality for macOS in SwiftUI e.g. tree view, multi-window, sensible undo support etc and addition of of overlapping capabilities to iPadOS e.g. Stage Manager, mouse support etc.

Looked very much like Apple were on reasonable path to replacing macOS's aging NeXTSTEP UI underpinnings by evolving iPadOS UI into a replacement strategy.

Hope article is right, it would be good to see Apple's give their desktop platform a bit of the love they've focused on their other platforms.
