Apple also list the ports they commonly use:

What?   Actual documentation from Apple? 
 
No, it CAN'T be.

If you are an adult - you will apologize publicly to me for saying that.

Do any of you know how to read? Seriously. Did you even read that doc?
I posted it more than a week ago, and I read it. You did not even read it.

The document says nothing about whether third-party iOS applications have
the ability to bind to or utilize privileged ports, specifically 445.

I get it that Apple trolls are desperate for respect, but you're not going
to get respect from me when you post a document that you didn't even read.

What it says is...
a. Port 445 is a TCP port.
b. Port 445 is associated with "Microsoft SMB Domain Server."
c. Port 445 is listed as a general port used by Apple software products.
   HINT: Files is an "Apple software product" for example.

The document confirms that port 445 is used by Apple software related to
SMB (such as the native Files app). However, that document provides no
information whatsoever about the ability of third-party iOS applications to
bind to or use this port for their own purposes, such as hosting an
iOS-based SMB server.

If you're going to try to insult me, at least read your references first.
Please.

It's inherently childish for you to say what you said.
And, I don't expect an apology but it would be the adult thing to do.
