Yeah that's definitely what I'm saying.

Hopefully there is work being done on the replacement for the Mach kernel and OSX / iOS in general. If there isn't that would be a grave mistake and exactly the kind of one someone like Tim Cook would make. Look at how he fumbled AI at Apple. I'm not saying he isn't talented, he is, but he isn't a product guy or an engineer.

This could happen in parallel with existing software dev skunkworks style.

Why on earth would they migrate away from the Mach kernel and OSX/iOS?

Because nothing lasts forever. Take a look at what Harmony OS is capable of if you want to see what a modern take on an OS and ecoystem looks like. It sure isn't the pinnacle either.

There's no reason for Apple to migrate; none at all. The idea that they need to do so is just ridiculous, regardless of what Harmony OS may do. iOS/macOS does exactly what they need.

Will things change? Perhaps if/when quantum computing becomes a bigger item.

Can you give a brief comparison? I'm not familiar with Harmony OS and wouldn't know where to start on comparing the two.

I found out about it through this guy and his videos, they are slow but in depth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSLFz4jTMEY
