>has substantially eased things

except not everyone has decided to use that easing of the things. it seems like they go out of their way to make things difficult

My favorite is in how MP4s are not all the same. A video captured on a DSLR or other acquisition camera source might have +/- in the video/audio sync when imported into an NLE. Yes, the container utilizes PTS syncing to playback the video/audio streams in sync, but this +/- slop in sync is annoying AF to professionals capable of seeing the sync slop. Average consumers probably never notice. I thank all the gawds in all the heavens that I no longer have to edit MP4 source captured content and all of the manual slipping in the NLE.
