Vulkan runs just fine on phones. MoltenVk on macOS sometimes runs things faster than the native Metal port since the Vulkan port is likely to be far better optimized.
Vulkan, Metal, and DirectX 12 have pretty much converged to roughly the same architecture.
Apple could switch to Vulkan. Valve has already demonstrated this by funding MoltenVK.
Apple chooses not to play nice. This is 100% purely the fault of Apple.
