This is how it works with voice over on ios devices, and it’s pretty natural after you use it for awhile.

But VoiceOver is a niche accessibility feature. This just confuses people who switch between the macOS touchscreen and the iOS touchscreen.

That's true. Usually apple is more consistent with UX. I wonder what advantages they saw to voice over touch style of interaction.
