I thought we were talking about media production but your goalposts are over there in the playground.
Botched means I asked for more industry standard production files and you gave me something else, because you don’t understand ROI in industry. Equipment is cheap compared to time. Just use the tools the job requires.
I used to teach guerilla filmmaking back in the day of “desktop video is the next big thing” so I see where you’re coming from, even if you hide your ignorance about the work behind ideals. Knock yourself out learning to edit with a cheap gaming rig and the free version of Resolve, make cool stuff and upload, start a wedding video business.
But get work in a large production as a contractor? The tools are cheap compared to time and amortized quickly in taxes. Buy the tool the job requires. Skills should be platform agnostic.

That’s not what “botched” means but thank you for clarifying.
Equipment is cheap compared to time.
Sure but you don’t have to choose. They can be both inexpensive and time-efficient, and without supporting a user-hostile and eco-destructive company. And you’re limiting your talent pool to those with the funds to constantly buy and replace multi-thousand-dollar disposable machines, for absolutely no reason.
Skills should be platform agnostic.
I agree but you’re contradicting yourself. What you’re saying, in no uncertain words, is that your skills don’t matter unless you use a Mac.
I have no idea. That’s what I’m asking. You mentioned “botched” files but now you’re moving the goalposts to proprietary file formats?
