I would much prefer an iPad that would run MacOS when docked.

Exactly, This^
Why even docked, just give us the macOS before started metamorphosing into iPadOS (Ventura) which always been a glorified version of iOS with wasted spaces~

Apple is walking on a tightrope for cannibalization of its own lineup. There is a reason they are ~10 years late on this.
Everyone wants an iPad with MacOS but their laptop sales would immediately tank if they did that. Their iPad lineup is extremely bloated with 6 current gen models. Apple has to keep iPad prices high enough that people will buy laptops because of a small price differential between classes higher tier iPads and laptops. It is a really delicate system that works against everyone unfortunately

I know plenty of people that only use their ipad pro or macbook and refuse to carry buy and carry two devices, or are like me and won't buy any apple computing device until it satisfies my needs. It's not a given that everyone out there is just going to buy both devices or can even afford that. You could be spot on for the reasons this doesn't exist right now, but Apple is for sure missing out on new sales by not offering something like this. Hard to tell how the numbers would actually play out unless they actually released something.
