The phone is the computer. The hub makes it a "desktop" computer.
The components of a desktop computer are the computer. The case makes it a "desktop" computer.

So at what point do the components become the thing? How is a collection of parts, like a case, motherboard, CPU, PSU etc. any different than a dock and a phone collectively becoming a PC?
"Desktop computer" has no inherent meaning.

The only difference I'm aware of between the tablet version of DeX and the version on phones is the keyboard toolbar. What else are you saying is "optimized better"?

And a desktop computer is just a case unless you put components inside of it.

Yeah it's pretty classic.
I went with MT3 Extended 2048 on my beige Class 65. Solid retro feels. I'm looking to pick up JTK HSA Beige on Brown when the extras are finally available for my secondary Class 65 PCB (and maybe the new MM board when it's released).

Nice fit!
MM will be launching another board soon. Betting on a chunky 60%.

Just allow the installation of MacOS on the iPad. It's really not difficult.

So many times it's just easier to tap the thing on the screen rather than awkwardly get to it with the touchpad. It's also great for things like pinch to zoom and other gesture-based interactions which just feel more I tuituve on a touchscreen than a touchpad.

There was no reason to not use a black and white OLED panel in this. They're not expensive.
That's literally what stopped me from buying one.
