Apple doesn't support Linux working with iOS - Linux is in the real world.

 
Since I use and program Linux for desktop and embedded projects I can
attest to its severe limitations in the "real world".
 
Esp. the absence of the more useful productivity apps (MS Office, Adobe
creative s/w, etc.).

 
Agree. That's the main reason I moved from linux to macOS. OpenOffice just
didn't cut it in a work environment.

In the work environment, almost everyone uses Microsoft Office nowadays.
Extremely few corporations use macOS as almost all use Microsoft Windows.

However, some do use macOS, but usually only in the marketing departments
where the women (it's almost always women) who do the graphics learned on
the mac and they can't switch to anything else as they don't like change.

As for engineers, almost all are on Linux (although many are dual boot with
Windows which, in effect, gives them the best of both worlds on one PC).

Extremely few engineers would want to be caught dead on macOS, but some
exist (mostly those who are like the marketing communications people).
