Only if ones lives in a POSIX CLI world of Web GUIs.

That is not the market that Apple cares about, nor NeXT did that much, other to gain market share when things were looking dim.

Most of the world uses web apps. Huge and performance sensitive applications like Adobe, Maya, etc mostly already have their own UI rendering engine anyway.

It’s a lot different from the Win32/x86 duopoly situation.

Platforms have been mostly abstracted away.
