> Using Macs and PCs mostly, sometimes Linux too. Rarely iPads. That's more of a strawmen your building here.
You're arguing as if everyone changes production mode in one go when new hardware arrives. This chip was only released 50 days ago.
Your example of "power the world innovations" included "compile Linux kernel" and "play the latest Steam/GOG games".
YouTube is more valuable to the world than endlessly recompiling the Linux kernel.
Let me rephrase via metaphorical narrative:
--
"This internal combustion engine is very good, isn't it. I don't know why people keep saying they're a dead-end."
"That's kind of the problem. The world's most powerful engine is put in the world's most expensive and thinnest carriage, lol. Was the previous horse-drawn carriage holding anyone back? Can't use car exhaust as manure!"
"Obviously it held people back, just look at all the things horseless carriages let people do faster, how the delivery of goods has been improved. And honestly, most people have moved on from organic manure."
"What, manure is niche compared to trucks?"
"Very much so. I mean, how do you think we get all the stuff in our shops?"
"But most of the stuff is delivered by horses! And also, you're talking about trivial things like 'shopping', when horses power important things like 'cavalry'. I rest my case."

I copy-pasted from your own previous comment, and at the time of writing this comment, the words "were the M3 IPads being held back" are still present. I cannot see how they could mean something else. Just in case you edit that comment (you've edited a few others, that's fine, I do that too), here's the whole paragraph:
> And you haven't answered my question. For video and audio editing, were the M3 IPads being held back compared to M4 for it to unlock new possibilities that couldn't have been done before and convince new users to switch to iPads?

This is a bad faith argument. You should assume compile Linux kernel = doing any software development if you expect to have a rational discussion with anyone.
Since your comments are deviating in the bad faith direction with you trying to score gotchas off of interpretations of various words in my comments, instead of sticking to the chips comparison topic at hand, I will have to stop replying to you as we can't have an objective and sane debate at this point. Peace.
