Electron is an economic choice, not a choice of engineering excellence. Make desktop apps that work on all major desktop OSes (actual write once, run everywhere) and also works as a web app with one kind of very ubiquitous engineer on one code base. Web apps are also very popular from a customer adoption standpoint.
Also Objective-C scares people away. Swift being a nicer Obj-C syntax alone has consequences of it's own. And pretty much nobody in silicon valley / startups / big tech other than microsoft uses C#. C# is anti-recruiting indicator in most engineer's minds.
I also think nullability typing in swift & all major libraries having proper nullability typing brings major benefits, I'm not sure if C# has that.
