I want to concentrate on managing my car's interaction with the traffic and conformance to street rules. And even these parts I am happy to give up. Self-driving cars cannot come soon enough. That must be a nightmare to you, but I am happy that this is not a majority opinion. I believe it will also be like that someday in the future, when people realize that the user-is-an-admin model we have now is really just a waste of time.
Wait until the police can remotely CONTROL your car to pull over. And probably for the wrong reasons. And then you'll want to prefer driving your way without the self-driving aspects. Sounds like you like to have your hands held by 'big brother' which the argument doesn't work if you're supporting iOS over a true desktop class operating system that has wider flexibility.
Having a desktop file system is far superior than just iOS's architecture. You need full control of where your files are at and having the ability to lock them down for privacy. Or a way to organize them into a folder. Or having some way to import/export with flexibility. I do professional graphic design/illustration work and prefer the manual aspects because I know my way around the desktop. But I also use the iPad Pro for specific purposes, not as the end result, as part of my creative process.
In my eyes, they are only productive when they use the talents that only they have, not a "skill" that anyone can be trained to have within a short amount of time.
Today, it is a required skill in the industry when it comes to knowing the software and operating system. In graphic design, it's NOT just talent but employers expect you to KNOW your way around the software and file architecture. If you know, for example, 3D modelling, that's a skill not talent. Talent is one thing, but skill is another that must be learned or acquired. Or coding, as another example. You need to know that if you want to stay competitive in the field. Same thing with Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Autodesk CAD, Mudbox, Clip Studio Paint, and so on.
It's especially true when the industry continues to evolve with more powerful applications and hardware, the professionals have to keep up with their craft and catch up. You put in the time to learn the application, not the easy way out.
That line of thinking of simplicity usually falls into Ray Bradbury's "Fahrenheit 451" theme of burning books and not thinking critically, while being guided by the authority that prefers society not to think but to 'get moving' without questioning.

Sometimes, the tech enables the artist. Let's see him try to draw the same picture on a surface laptop.
Bad argument there and reeks of a$$ kissery to Apple.
Both the Surface Pro and iPad Pro can do the same thing. Even, a professional with a Wacom digitizer tablet can do that too. As a creative professional myself, I can say iPad Pro is nice but it is NOT superior. It does get the job done but it's not everything it's cracked up to be. While the Pencil is nice, it does have some problems that Apple needs to address...BADLY. It needs a digital eraser like the Wacom stylus ( I have extensive experience with this so I know what I'm talking about ) and better Bluetooth connectivity without having to stick it in the iPad's "rear" every time for the BT to connect.
They also need to make the Pencil less smooth on the surface and add a textured grip so it feels more comfortable without the slippage. And yes, I'm acutely aware of Pencil sheathes sold in the third party market that allow comfortable gripping. I know of some artists who use a basic rubber or foam pencil grip from office supply stores and attach it to the Pencil. It actually works.
