I think you've got this a little backwards.

The Mac port used to use Carbon, which is beyond it's end-of-life, or
is at least not seeing new feature development. The Mac port also uses
a lot of "NEXTstep" (Cocoa) code, which is still the current toolkit
for macOS and iOS, although it has another name on iOS and I can't
remember what it is.

The NS port is almost entirely "NEXTstep" (GNUstep and Cocoa,
specifically).
