In spirit, I agree with you but it would really suck for independent devs. All those bug reports for a device you may not own and for a use case you may never have intended to support. All that leads to 1 star reviews from upset users which could potentially kill an app
Yes, I completely understand that it’s the right move for many. I still think it’s annoying sadly.
As far as I’m aware, on the App Store, reviews only count for the platform that you review on. So if you go look at an iOS app on the Mac App Store, you’d see different reviews than that same app on the iOS App Store. Presumably, it would be the same here
