Not totally clear why presenting a popover on iOS doesn't also cause the first responder to change, but ... OK?

It looks like it's pretty much due to UIKit implementation details. On Mac Catalyst, _UIPopoverSceneManager is used to present popovers, which resigns first responder underneath -createPopoverSceneForContentViewController:sourceView:sourceRectInParentUIWindow:contentSize:permittedArrowDirections:showsArrow:userInterfaceStyle:withCompletionBlock:]. This codepath isn't taken on iOS and iPadOS.
