    Recently updated to Xcode 11 GM seed 2 (11A420a) and I when running my app on a simulator (iPhone Xs Max (probably irrelevant)) a dialog popped up asking permission to access my iCloud.

    Why? Apple did not provide any reason as to why which felt strange?

    "SimulatorTrampoline.xpc" wants to access files managed by "iCloud Drive".

    I actually accepted... because I did not want any strange incorrect behavior of my simulator.

    But feels kind of ironic that Apple forces us, developers, to provide reasons (displayed to users of our apps) why we want to access the user's camera for instance, but here Apple did not provide any reason text themselves...
