iPadOS still a single user OS as of today. I honestly think the moment it can run apps it the same unrestricted manner macOS can then the battery life would take a huge hit.

It's not like the MacBooks have poor battery life? I'd be perfectly happy with an iPad that could run my IDE and execute code, even if it meant a few hours less battery.

You are right, however when traveling carrying a MacBook vs an iPad does make a difference, even when it’s MacBook Air.

Yeah, that's fine, I'd be happy to live with a lighter, smaller iPad that can run regular macOS apps (or at least iPadOS ports of them).
