Not surprising since that's the norm for tablets.  Linux will never make it onto the iPad, which is fine until iOS is no longer officially supported on your device.

Maybe Apple will then release a toolkit to get Linux running on unsupported devices. You never know, afterall, Apple did invent the idea that people have their own devices they can program by themselves. Wait...
