Aren't purchases also shared between stores? Like if you buy an app on iPhone you also get it on iPad?

Depends on the app but basically, yeah. For example, the Ivory for Mastodon app is a Mac/iPhone/iPad application, and the "Mac App Store Preview" shows screenshots for all three devices.

No.

For example if I buy OmniGraffle for iPad I don't automatically get the Mac version.

There are options for developers to do this but it's not automatic.
