The many platform restrictions that are intended to isolate an app from the system and from other apps, also work against having apps share data seamlessly and I think prohibit apps like Excel from having macros. And in app purchases cannot actually add a program module, only turn on features and add digital content. There’s a lot you can do with those restrictions, but there is a lot you cannot do with them.
There are rumors that XCode is coming to iPadOS, if this turns out to be true, then maybe it will open things up. Not obvious how they do that without sacrificing one of the pillars of iOS philosophy: Thou Shalt Not Touch Thy Neighbors Memory or Data.
