Yep. That’s because the iPhone isn’t mounted as a file system. While the specifics are not documented, it’s reasonable to think of the iPhone as a locally connect file server.

Ditto.

There isn’t a great path forward for you here. This sort of things crops up a lot, so I’ve post my general advice in Inferring High-Level Semantics from Low-Level Operations.
