The Surface Pro has never been designed from the ground up with touch as the primary interaction method.
It's always been a laptop with some touch interaction bolted on.
Therein lies the difference.
Apple has chosen to surface more complexity (designing a version of drag and drop for touch), but they haven't stopped making touch the primary interaction method.

Microsoft tried to make touch a priority with Windows 8 and it was a complete failure. The Surface is great, as a laptop, but not very useful without a keyboard.

Nor should they.
