Note that they still share code for much of Darwin, even where the license does not require it: https://github.com/apple-oss-distributions

True, but from what I hear, the dumps don’t really help much. Better than nothing, I suppose

If they wanted their code to be sharealike, the developers could have chosen a different license. Apple is contributing more than is required so don’t complain?

The point is Apple doesn’t actually want to help the community - they might be hoping that someone goes through their dumps and finds a vulnerability and reports it to them. Free community sourced labour.
If they really wanted to help, MacOS should have been GPLv3. But we know that’s not how Apple functions.
