I think looking at the competition is a good indicator.
On one side we have the hybrid computer market -> computer market, like Chromebooks and chromeOS devices, and Windows 11 in the same space.
On the other side android spans what we'd call phones up to 14" tablets, foldables brindging both ends.
iOS is clearly competing with android, and the iPad is way closer to android than Windows or even ChromeOS. The iOS/iPad split would relate to Apple's internal divisions more than a existing split of the market itself IMHO.

However, you could contrive an argument that ‘since the tablet market is way smaller, it’s less important to regulate it.’ Personally I’m in agreement that the regulation should apply to both markets, though.
