I don't see where anyone is deciding against the iMac Pro because of
this - why the alarmist header?

That said, as a former Apple service manager I was a little, ah,
surprised by how automated product setup has become. In the last week I
set up an iPad and the new 4k Apple TV - much of the setup is simply
holding another of your Apple devices NEAR the new one, so settings can
be siphoned off...
