Do you want your M2 Mac mini with USB and THC (cannibis extracts stuck into the USB?
This is a surprising request.
Mac users generally want speed, cannabis actually slows down things.

I got excited for about one second then reminded myself that the WWDC 2022 app will be mainly awesome when the WWDC 2022 talks are available.

Was it ever split?

Like, beyond the marketing?
If you really want to get down to the bottom of it, macOS/iOS/iPadOS/watchOS/tvOS/homeOS are all actually one OS. They're derived from the same base code of Darwin/NeXTSTEP/Cocoa, they all just have different marketing names and versions. So, yes, it's surprising that there's not an iPadOS icon in the Resources folder, especially as it seems to be for marketing, and as the other OSes are in there, with the exception of homeOS and iPadOS.

Then again, it could be an oversight of some kind, or laziness. Who knows.
