I use MacBooks because they have USB slots on them At least some of them I am trying to turn my iPad into a MacBook. I need to be able to download things from Safari and open them, have a usb and needs it to have Mac OS on it! Thanks
iPad Air, iPadOS 17
An iPad runs iPadOS. An iPad is incapable of running macOS.

Sorry, but even as capable as iPads have become …
… they still can only run iPadOS and iPadOS apps.

Allowing to use the iPad Pro with Mac OS could initiate windows users to the Mac environment and convert them to Mac OS. I haven’t really ever used a Mac, but I have an IPad Pro, never had the intention / motivation to go towards macOS. That could be a way for Apple to expand its market share.
You can certainly give Apple the benefit of your marketing wisdom here:
Yes this would be really nice you could buy an adapter to plug it in along with a keyboard or buy an hdmi adapter for iPad and get a Mac mini and get an hdmi app so you can do that too

Interesting idea, but if you pay attention carefully, it appears that they are moving towards the opposite: replacing MacOS with iPad OS. The latest versions of MacOS look a lot like iOS.
