So iOS and iPadOS are the same thing…

Wasn't that always obvious? Surely nobody actually believed Apple built an entirely separate OS for their slightly-larger iPods?

I'm sure we all assumed that they came from the same codebase, but I don't think any of us were expecting the features to be shipped to both platforms and disabled at runtime as required. I expected a common codebase with the iPadOS features disabled at compiletime for iOS, and vice versa.
