You are talking about the language but bringing up an example of creating an app for an Apple platform. Regardless of the language you will have to create app bundle structure, copy assets inside, add mobile provision and sign it.

If you ask me, those platform specific things should never be integrated part of the language.

Sure, but developing for Apple's platforms is Swift's primary use. I'd say Dart & Flutter is a fair comparison:

As flawed as they are in my eyes, its dev tooling quality is something I appreciate and wish I saw here. There are two CLIs, one for the language (Dart) and one for the framework (Flutter). Some would say that the CLI equivalent would be xcodebuild, but that depends on the complex .xcodeproj/.xcworkspace structure and still requires XCode to be installed.
