There are some differences, but it's useful to think of the iPad introduction in January 2010. Apple didn't create a keyboard for it until November 2015 with the "Smart Keyboard" and then nearly five years later, the "Magic Keyboard" that brought cursor support. Apple marketing is focusing on using hands, sure, but that they were so quick to make it compatible with keyboards/trackpads is revealing.
