iOS was based off NextStep, just like OSX.

Could you elaborate? I'd say any connection iOS has with NextStep is through OS X. What connection does iOS have to NextStep that is independent of OS X parentage?

I was being sarcastic, iOS is clearly based on MacOS/OSX, which was derived from NextStep. OP was implying that was a myth.

Still with a BSD derived kernel? I can't see why you'd need to make them that different; massive costs savings if you don't.
