How Come?

I am wondering this. When commodore dealt with Amiga they had workbench 1.3, extras 1.3, then workbench 2.x dislks, then 3.x, then hyperion same and everything else in between had them.

How come Apollo doesn't have their own disks/cd/sd etc?

They do, Apollo OS .. no need for physical media.

But Apolloos needs hard drive. What about for hard drive-less people ?

I couldn't find the hardware requirements for Amiga OS 3.0 or 3.1 but;
Amiga OS 3.1.4 requires 5MB of mass storage space and
Amiga OS 3.2.x requires 10MB of mass storage space

IMO, everyone really should have some sort of mass storage device these days.

But I wanted a physical cd Apollood with cd been red with the sticker and box and manual for collectible addition also - fountain of tears -

It gives me the 1980 feel again

Everything fits nicely on a CF card. That’s your media. You can find and or make whatever kind of label you want.

Dude! They already have it. There it is: EXTERNAL LINK  I am surprised no one figured it out. That is my floppy disk for ApolloOS ROM. This right here! I am just surprised they did not have the Vampire logo on the top. It would have been super cool. But this is it. The physical edition right here.
