The reality that Apple is actively anti-web is obscured somewhat by an influential set of aging web commentators who remember when it wasn't, and enjoy the privileges of living in the wealth bubble more than they care about junior devs and the web ecosystem they benefited from so much.
To the extent that they are failing to demand better browsers on their phones, that's a scandal:

Ran across this gorgeous diagram (at left) of the cyclic execution schedule of the software used on Skylab (1970s). I love this way of thinking about cyclic execution, but I didn't realize anyone else used it!
At right, one of my (less pretty and much less hand-drawn) diagrams from an article I wrote on graphics demo architecture... 40 years later. (And ten years ago, gosh.)
In the replies below, I talk about the old ways of drafting, if you're curious.
