You will likely never have Apple support functionality behind a PWA flag other than cosmetic things, because it is still the same overall security model - one of dynamically-updated web content without any third party auditor or enforcement against abuse. Thats not to say they shouldn't support additional web functionality for everyone, just that "Add to Home Screen" is likely never going to unlock additional native hardware capabilities or exclusive background processing modes. This is also why every browser implements web extensions via a store model. The store model allows the browser to serve as a port for auditing and revocation on abuse, because that is what the capabilities of web extensions require.
