That’s because the professionals do all this “computational photography” on a laptop or something.
That way they get to have a little more creative input into it too.
There’s like a billion desktop apps to get any sort of processing you want done on a shot.
DSLRs aren’t good if you want “point and click,” and that’s okay.

I disagree, that's my point. I completely understand your point that most DSLR users are pros who have tools to make things pop. What I'm suggesting is that there is a market for people who want really high quality photos that are achievable through larger lenses and sensor sizes, with the simplicity and intelligence in realtime of a phone camera.
Would it be a billion dollar market? Maybe not. But with "computational photography" being far from science fiction these days and with mobile chips being so powerful, it would seem like a strong way to stay relevant in a mainstream market to market a DSLR with phone-like usability.
