Inferior hardware? The iPad Pro has the same CPU as a Macbook...

Keyboard and trackpad/mouse is a huge difference from only a touchscreen.
Don't iPads have that as well via the official case?
You are correct, they do, via the official keyboard/trackpad case. Or you can even just connect any other bluetooth keyboard+trackpad (including the dedicated magic keyboard+trackpad for macs). And most of the keyboard+trackpad shortcuts/gestures are already the same on both macOS and iPadOS
Beg to disagree. There’s only so much computation a handheld device can support, regardless of its nominal CPU.
