With how much money they make from iOS vs mac, I don't see how shareholders are doing anything but screaming at them to ditch the expensive legacy platform called mac. As soon as xcode can run on a iPad pro, I think they drop (""sunset"") macos.

How many people on the Apple engineering team are just screaming to work full time using nothing but iPads? How many Apple designers are waiting to get rid of their iMac Pros and switch to using whatever Photoshop version is available on the iPad? Or do you think Apple would give them Windows desktops to work on?
