The underlying problem is the programming industry completely resisting learning the lessons of Objective-C because it doesn't like them. It didn't like them when NeXT tried selling it, and it doesn't like it now.

You can't have Cocoa without Obj-C, or at least a langauge and runtime with that philosophy.

Apple software has been on a clear decline for a seriously long time, and it's propped up almost entirely by them pulling off Apple Silicon combined with how Microsoft have somehow been even worse.
