If you have a camera that shoots RAW 8k video, I'd wager you aren't using an iPad to edit on.
OK, iPad Pro has something like 4k-5k video camera, which produces a lot of RAW data anyway (assuming software can access RAW feed with some lossless compression applied), so the problem is still there unless you want to prepare videos with ugly artifacts from compression.

> extremely off consumer monitors are... I'm not sure what consumer monitors you're using, but they are certainly not "extremely off". You're making it sound like shades of green on the iPad turn into muddy brown on a monitor, which isn't true.
I had the ipad connected to a $700 LG monitor and the LG one was much much redder than the ipad, the difference was significant. It's fine for programming, gaming, and content consumption, but if you were doing any visual production work, this is unusable.

USB-C ipads seem to support 10gbps speeds. You can hook up a 10gbps Ethernet adapter[0] [0]: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HesEVXItRu0
It's thunderbolt, so 40gbps
One of the things that makes this a big deal is an iPad is often the most color accurate highest quality display anyone has.
You don't realize how extremely off consumer monitors are until you compare it to a calibrated one like the ipad.

My problem was I always found it to have weird holdovers in terms of UI from hardware integration days of colour correctors. Hopefully that is gone now. But for example you used to not be able to just drag your full screen viewing window to a second monitor - they forced you to get their little hardware PCIe card. Given that most Nvidia cards will do 10 bit colour now with the studio drivers I hope they have rethough…
They prefer for the GPU cores to be doing math rather than displaying image. That's why you can get away with the GPU not being in a full lane width slot. The little PCIe did more than just send out an HDMI signal back then as well, as most of it went to an SDI or even older analog component BNCs. No GPU I've ever seen has had those connectors.
Not much need for them, either. As long as you have an HDMI output (or a DVI output with a passive HDMI adapter cable), there are HDMI-to-SDI converters. Blackmagic sells 'em for like 70€ apiece - I've disassembled one, it's essentially a HDMI decoder, an FPGA that does the protocol translation and an SDI encoder/transceiver.
This is incredible on so many fronts. 5-10 years ago, I would choose my computer based on it's potential to edit video. A decade ago, most laptops couldn't handle the load of uncompressed video. 5 years ago, having iMovie on your Ipad allowed us to make sub <5 minute videos of low-res/processed files. Now we have an intersection of 1. an Ipad is powerful enough to handle this type of data processing and 2. BMD has fo…
I doubt this is true. In 2006 (so 16 years ago) I bought a mid-tier Windows laptop with a 80 GB IDE HDD and I was cutting uncompressed DV avi files on it in Adobe Premiere just fine. Real time preview and everything.

And Davinci Resolve's Edit page (I don't know why the ggp says it's not an NLE).
It's an nle like after effects is one. It's not not an nle but it's roots are elsewhere so because of that, it's hard to see it as one, despite advances in the software.
I don't know why you're saying it's not a "real" NLE.

What does being off mean? If that's how everyone sees it, isn't that what you should use as reference instead of a device with "correct" rendering that only a few people uses?
