In my experience that has more to do with the artificial limitations devs put into ipad software. Take MPC drum machines for example. iMPC Pro 2 could replace all hardware MPCs if they wanted to but they would cannibalize their hardware if they did that so they made the ipad version a toy instead.

In absolutely no way is this the case. The iPads screen will always be a toy compared to proper AKAI pads. It’s not even velocity-sensitive.
Fair point but it's much further hamstrung than it needs to be and it would be easy to add velocity after the performance.
>> it would be easy to add velocity after

What? In no way, especially for drums.

Just draw it in. I've been doing it for years in daws
Yeah, okay, no, that does not equate to getting the natural response I am putting out while playing. :/
