Wow. Apple has gone to great lengths to do it wrong… Apple’s worst asset was Jobs. He was great at figuring out how to use a technology. But, he had to be in total control of user access to the technology. And, he was often wrong…

BTW, iPad was developed first. Jobs hired Alan Kay as an Apple Fellow. Kay created the DynaBook. iPad is a dumbed-down DynaBook. All iPod and iPhone development was done on iPad, with parameters changed for screen size, memory capacity, radio/no radio, etc. I worked with Kay for a year.
