Unless you can run your code in your device at any point without signatures, internet checks and oversight from Apple there's no "Device Neutrality". There isn't also device freedom while you've large companies and govts in Europe forcing people to use mobile-only applications that will refuse to run on anything not stock Android or iOS for basic things like banking and digital signatures.
