In what way(s) do you feel the M1 iPad Air / iPad Pro suffer(s) arbitrary limitation?

Apple Studio Display Contains 64GB of Storage, But Only 2GB Used

So many people here are getting upset or disappointed, simply because they know something about the internal components of a display. How about we all just judge the display based on how it functions.
Is it just me or does the studio display seem like a blatant cash grab? Specs are very underwhelming for such a price. I was really looking forward to getting one but not anymore.
Yeah... I'm really steamed there isn't an integrated mint dispenser.
Bad Apple, TC needs to be fired.
Is HomeKit with Thread just a software update away?
And AppleTV, not the little box; but a TV with a monitor (which is probably what @centauratlas is saying). What's missing? A tuner? And many wouldn't know they don't have that. We have an antenna for local stations.
All this is crazy, Why it costs 1500 because they threw everything but the kitchen sink. Why not just make a good monitor and not a jack of all trade master of non monitor.
Paying for components, Over-engineered monitor and the one thing they skimp on is the panel.

How did they skimp on the panel? It's a slightly brighter version of the one they sold in the 27" iMac.
When have Apple ever added new features to a product after the fact? They want to sell new things to you repeatedly, not suddenly unlock new potential in an existing product.
Instead of adding all that stuff they could have put the same XDR panel. make it a 27 inch XDR
So the Apple Studio display is communicating with the computer via ethernet over USB? Huh.
It likely doesn't have the full iOS installed. It's probably stripped down to the necessary components for running whatever it's running in this display. No UI needed, no apps...
I have absolutely no idea what this ethernet adapter does. all I know it's in the display, it has an IPV6 address and I can ping it.
Can't wait for these displays to get attacked through the internet...
It probably would be a lot more expensive. The Pro XDR starts at $5,250 (if you opt for the VESA mount).
They did add third party apps to the iPhone in 2008, a year after Steve Jobs insisted that “web apps” were all anyone needed.
Well, doesn't a processor need SOME MEMORY in order to functionally run its tasks?
So, an A13 processor probably needs 32-64gb of memory to carry out multiple functions.
By today's standards, isn't 64gb a small amount of memory?
Just sayin.

Apple could very well allow Intel Mac users to run iOS and iPadOS apps natively, like on M1 Macs, and developers to simulate their mobile apps at full speed in XCode by using the Studio Display’s A13 as a co-processor. Wouldn’t that be cool? And the same would go for Macs with Apple Silicon processors, the more power, the better.
That’s not 64GB of memory, as in RAM, but of storage, as in an actual SSD.
Im not doing your research. There are enough threads on MR alone.
I'll acknowledge this one partially. But the device already had that functionality from the first party. It's not like an entire new function was added (apps). It was just expanded to third-parties.
