Yes.
Why else would you buy such an expensive machine with such a crappy operating system?

Because the target market (mobile) is very profitable, if you have the skill, I also don’t understand that stance because Mac powerbooks, Mac minis, Mac studios last a long time and have high resale value if you decide to move on, particularly if you are a smaller development company.
