And iOS as well as iPadOS now also support USB smart card readers. iPads can actually use them to access NFC FIDO tokens. (Why iPads don't have native NFC is completely beyond me, there are so many obvious use cases for it)

Oh, that's very cool!
Apple seems to silently be implementing more and more features to make iOS/macOS a full-fledged smart card OS; I've also noticed that FIDO over CCID is now available natively on macOS, and by extension in Firefox and Safari via WebAuthN (which finally lets me use my smartcard form factor FIDO authenticator).
Card emulation is a thing now: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corenfc/cardsessio... (edit: only in the EU)
