Earlier context:
Panic blog: 'there’s not a lot of overlap right now between “pro” and “iOS”. ’
and more recent context - the prospect of a unified (UIKit ?) macOS and iOS development platform:

- Technically it sounds promising,
- Economically it raises the questions of whether customers:
- will expect to buy just one license for both platforms
- will have price expectations shaped more by the iOS ecosystem than by the macOS tradition.
It seems to me that these questions are of particular relevance to The Omni Group and its macOS and iOS customers, not least in the context of the market signals coming from Panic Inc.
( Of course one would hope that a more integrated development platform might reduce some of the development costs )
