well, same could be said about Homebrew vs. Macports (which is hosted and maintained by Apple). Afaik even a lot of Apple developers don't use macports anymore…
Afaik the swift package manager works only for swift code, so it's not an replacement.
Also it's a very bad habit to try to stand over the users that supply software for your most valuable product. We've seen a lot of stories lately that indie app development is dead. We also regularly see how weak Apple is in web services (cloud sync).
So either developers invest a lot of time to build something that works (and maybe even share it on GitHub) or they will stick with the holy Apple solution and provide a crappy user experience and go bankrupt. Companies like Google or Amazon (AWS) do a very good propag^developer releations job, IMHO way better than Apple ever did (in the last 10 years).
