Research direction

Start by reproducing `cordova run ios --target="iPhone-8"` with an iPad connected to a MacBook, observing the `Waiting for emulator to start...` state. Compare the behavior of `--target` and `--device` and determine how deployment should explicitly choose an emulator or a device. Done means the command no longer waits on the wrong destination and the selection is clear.
