Why pay for a ported iPadOS app that will have limited usability on a Mac compared to a native Mac app? I’ll just keep using native Mac apps on my Macs and iPadOS apps on my iPad.

I don't really know of any particular reason that one should have to upgrade at this time. Maybe in the future. Apple tends to have a high upgrade rate because it's free and relatively seamless. That reduces the support expenses for Apple. Definitely a different business model than Microsoft who charged for upgrades back when I was still using Windows. This also means that developers will start to use new features fairly quickly.
If I recall correctly, the last time we saw a MacOS release that broke a lot of programs, it was High Sierra, which used a new security model that caused many programs not to work correctly.
