"makes me suspicious that the developers they care about are Mac/iOS developers"
No surprise here. It is very clear that the Mac is becoming two things:
1. Just a bigger iPad that isn't too awkward to use where your average consumer can actually create stuff (videos, photos, etc.);
2. A development machine to create iOS apps.
Sigh; I might have to switch back to FreeBSD for development. The only things tying my into my mac right now are tax software and word processing. Word processing I can just convert to TeX, but the tax software is an annoyance.
So, UNIX development is still there, but I'm worried that in the future I'll need to pay a developer license to run unsigned code (or something equally ludicrous). The interfaces are going down the tube - look at Notes, or iCal. If iOS keeps influencing OSX, we'll see tape reels and bookshelves in XCode.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but Windows 8's Metro actually looks better designed than modern Apple software.

Everything else is an afterthought.
