   We still have an important TODO that needs to be fixed for tvOS:

   runtime/src/mono/netcore/System.Private.CoreLib/src/System/Environment.iOS.cs

   Lines 39 to 41 in f48c8d5

   	// TODO: fix for tvOS (https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/34007)
   	// The "normal" NSDocumentDirectory is a read-only directory on tvOS
   	// and that breaks a lot of assumptions in the runtime and the BCL

   Reopening to track that.

    It looks like NSCachesDirectory is the preferred alternative for tvOS.
