macOS is really not optimised for touch though. macOS on a 13 inch iPad with a keyboard and trackpad attached would probably be usable, albeit with limited IO. But trying to use macOS with just fingers isn’t going to be much fun, especially for more complicated software.
Personally I’d rather see Apple further develop iPadOS as a touch first productivity OS, and leave macOS for the Mac.
Maybe if Apple opens up the App Store rules (willingly or not) more eventually virtualisation will be possible on an iPad, allowing people to DIY a macOS-on-iPad setup if they really wanted to.
I think the option to dual boot or run some type of virtualized sandbox should be present at this point for power users.

People say that a lot, but it’s probably not true.
