Because enterprise applications aren't generally cross-platform? Your hypothetical scenario was the same exact one that failed Apple in the 80s. Capturing the mindshare of the consumer doesn't help Apple break into the workplace. Especially when the devices Apple makes are about as anti-business as you can get. Its harder to use an Apple product for work than it is to use a PC for fun.
Apple probably won't return to its dark late-90s days anytime soon but I think there is a pretty firm cap on how much growth they can achieve.
