Off topic, but I love that Apple is still using NS as the prefix; I wonder how long that will last :)

Hopefully as long as SEO results make including 'Apple' or 'iOS' redundant keywords. NSAnything suggests both when searching for errors and general debugging on StackOverflow.

If it's lasted this long, probably forever (or until they completely replace OSX).

OS X is replaced, Big Sur is now OS 11

Not really, that's just branding. I'm talking "replaced" like they replaced Classic Mac OS.

Yeah I was being facetious
