      I doubt that web apps use less power then native apps. Especially because native apps can be entirely compiled to the architecture. It always depend on the software in question.

      By dropping pwa they most likely prohibit an api to use any os interface at all. PWA additionally circumvent their store. And therefore steering developers back to their known ecosystem - which requires apple hardware to develop on. Additionally it may “preserve” the dedicated knowledge to develop against their os.
