Description

when using "cordova emulate ios"
It doesn't launch ios simulator ios-sim never gets called

possible root cause:
cordova-cli calls "platforms/ios/cordova/run --emulator"
https://github.com/apache/cordova-cli/blob/master/src/emulate.js#L25

But cordova/run script expects "--emulate"
https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/blob/master/bin/templates/scripts/cordova/run#L62

possible fix:
update run to use --emulator instead of --emulate
