Don't be surprised if XCode for iPad Pro is a thing soon. It's becoming clear he sees iPads as the future of computing, it's all he uses personally and developing it's own apps is one of the last things it actually can't do.

You suggest you will develop any serious software without access to a file system? And on a 10 inch screen?

Also developers like to you use their own tools. That doesn't fit well with the "you will do as you are told" approach of Apple.
