I would argue that iPadOS Safari and iOS Safari are not really that different though.
from a coding perspective
That’s what I mean, would you say iPadOS Safari and iOS Safari don’t share a good chunk of their codebase?
The vast majority of the code is WebKit, which is the same across platforms. The UI is a small amount of code compared to WebKit, and even then I’m sure there is a lot of sharing between the iOS and iPadOS versions.
