You are mistaken. “Distro” is a word for Linux distributions because they have kernels with the same one upstream, and userspace programs assembled of many different projects into different versions of the same dish.
BSDs are different operating systems, they don’t share one upstream, they do share one ancestor (like 30 years ago, so - not very relevant now). Including userspace, except for common software, of course.
And Darwin is another operating system, including its own userspace tools, which are partially derived from BSD code, but its kernel is different, it’s Mach plus some BSD-derived code. It’s not a BSD.
And while mostly Apple’s OSes are Darwin, I think I’ve read some of them are NetBSD. Not sure which.
And it’s a store, not a package manager. It’s in the name.
