Hm, yeah, didn't think about shitrags' willingness to write misleading headlines to generate outrage/clicks.
They could make it completely detached from iCloud instead and allow using some generic API like WebDAV, so it can be used with Nextcloud for example. Plus potential DAV extensions or a new protocol and iOS API (or extend File Provider) if it needs anything specialized (it most likely does).
