Apple Crippling PWAs

Commenters contrast this with better PWA support on Android and debate PWAs as alternatives to native apps.

And supposedly we don't need PWAs according to Apple...
Apple also cripples PWA's so that's not an option.
Apple is very hostile towards PWA, lots of stuff unsupported by Safari
"There is always PWAs" isn't an especially good answer when PWAs and webapps in general are aggressively hobbled in iOS Safari
The problem with PWA --- Apple don't like it.
Isn't this about native iOS apps, not PWAs?
What problem does Apple have with PWAs (apart from monetary ones ofcourse), how are they justifying not implementing features in browser for a good PWA?
Why haven’t PWA’s displaced native Android apps? That can’t be Apple’s fault, can it?
Unless Apple drags their feet with PWA implementation a native iOS app might not be needed?
PWAs are not supposed to replace native apps just to augment today's web apps.
