My Studio Display is also VESA mounted. Same cost.
Now, true, I can’t convert it back to the stand. But I’ve never actually done that with any other TV or monitor I’ve VESA mounted—I just get a pile of stands in my garage.
I think there's some merit in being able to buy a monitor without a stand, but the fact that the Studio Display fittings are proprietary and non user changeable defeats the purpose.
I'd rather monitor stand fittings be fully standardised on the VESA system, so users could easily pick and choose any stand or arm for their monitor.
It's still stupid though.
Why can't the stand just use Vesa like every other monitor?
