Spare a thought for poor Apple, whose Xmas has been ruined by beastly orgs making "interoperability requests" through Apple's own "interoperability request form". I've no love for Meta, but Fruit Co. (being a stranger to the concept of fair competition) hasn't understood that the point is to design and document APIs that allow interoperability, rather than grudgingly allow supplicants to submit a form into a black hole. Thoughts and prayers.
