We don't need to debate about whether in principle GNU Emacs should
have support for MacOS.  There is a general GNU Project policy about
this.

The policy is non-GNU systems are secondary, and lower priority than
the GNU system, but we are glad to include support for them in GNU
packages if users contribute the necessary code -- provided that code
isn't a maintenance problem for us.

The maintenainers of any particular package are the ones who judge
whether that code is a maintenance problem, since they are the ones
it would be a problem for.
