I confirmed M-x end-of-visual-line behaves differently with visual-line-mode
enabled than it does with visual-line-mode disabled (= end-of-visual-line is
intended with visual-line-mode enabled).

So Emacs doesn’t provide macOS 'Command-Left/Right Arrow’ equivalent
commands but using move-(beginning|end)-of-line is the most suitable choice.

Sorry for the noise. 🙇
