Look at their decision to remove all the scripting languages from macOS as another example. At first glance, this could mean a terrible step back for openness but the reality is sunnier. Apple has widely seen that everybody’s using Homebrew and no one is calling their old and crusty language versions anymore. So they wisely decided to count on the open-source community, who’s doing a better job at this than them, and to leave space for Homebrew to finally put references in your path to the languages you install.
Everybody wins by Apple giving a bit more space to others.
