Am more surprised you expected this to be a thing. When it comes to Apple users choice is always what Apple chooses. Otherwise they might hurt themselves.
Everything I've ever used gave me a choice, so I just assumed it was universal. Now I know.
Haven't used an apple device personally. I remember struggling when I was trying to copy a file from a friends iphone. Everything was so different.
I remember a long time ago, I worked with a lot of apple users and one had come to look at my unix machine. It had a then standard 3 button mouse which he found amazing. So I explained the whole copy and paste in X11 thing, and all the stuff you could do with several buttons depending on where you clicked.
He said that it was great but he regularly managed to miss the mouse button on his Mac so it probably wasn't for him.
And I suppose that's why apple does things that way.
