  How does that argument follow? Apple needs developers but they don't need those developers writing code using an iPad do they? After all, iPhones have an endless amount of apps but nobody (or close enough to nobody) is developing apps using their iPhone.

  I'm not seeing any decline in enthusiasm for iOS development, but maybe that's just me. In any case, you can develop fully featured projects for iPad on the web too, you don't even need a Mac for that, let alone an iPad.
