Also, just to point out. 16:9 screen is only good for watching videos. It’s a horrible experience if one is doing anything else other than watching videos.
I disagree with your opinion.
I’ve used many over the years and my experience in general has always been horrible. It’s too tall for comfortable usage in portrait orientation. Plus apps get stretched most of the times because of the weird aspect ratio. There’s nothing in the digital world that conforms to 16:9 ratio other than video.
I hear what you're saying. I take issue with "only" and "anything else."I’ve used many over the years and my experience in general has always been horrible.

(I actually don't care enough to *actually* argue it, but I could.) And there are plenty tablets out there with a movie-like aspect ratio. Apple thankfully sees the iPad, especially the Pro, not as a consumption but a creation/work device and I personally find this way more useful.I hear what you're saying.

The WeMo app I use to turn on and off lights or the Harmony app I use to control the media center? The reminders/notes app I use to jot things down? A video game that would have a 16:9 ratio on my television anyway? The babycam/security cam app that shoots in 16:9? The nest app? Spotify?
These apps would and do work just fine on a 16:9 or 9:16 display.
And, I could argue, media consumption is one of the biggest/most important uses of a tablet, so perhaps a tablet even *should* be 16:9.
