When the employee is the CEO who wants to use his iPhone or an owner who wants to use her MacBook, the IT department bends.

And yes, the users are smart enough to see there’s an iOS client so you can’t just tell them “it’s not available”.

We're talking about an open source project.

So if bigcorp wants OS X WireGuard support, they should be able to pay handsomely for it.

If they aren't willing to pay, then I believe the project should just avoid offering it, to avoid getting burnt out from unreasonable requests.

Who says they're not? A lot of the companies on https://www.wireguard.com/donations/ ship their own macOS software. Just because the Wireguard Mac app is free doesn't mean nobody's giving them money that's earmarked for Apple development.
