> iOS 13 updated this behaviour, so it now uses the 'correct' numeric keypad, without the punctuation keys

The iPhone shows the 0-9 keyboard. The iPad shows the punctuation keyboard. This is not obvious, and one of the places where Mobile Safari acts differently between the two device types.

That is odd. However, it looks like this matches the behaviour of <input type="number"> (both trigger the punctuation keyboard).
