If there isn't one already, I'm sure someone will implement OpenGL on top of Metal when it's needed badly enough. At least they're going closer to the hardware, not further away.

Already there: https://moltengl.com/moltenvk/

"MoltenVK is a runtime library that maps Vulkan to Apple's Metal graphics framework on iOS and macOS."

But molten is for Vulkan (ie: not OpenGL) - and not 100% of Vulkan, AFAIK.

OpenGL ES is not OpenGL though.

It's a subset mostly for mobile.
