Being a sole enterprise device is not a simple use case and it has nothing to do with general usability as far as most people are concerned. Your comment is an epitome of what the post you replied to was talking about.
On the contrary, there is perhaps only one use case where iPad Pro could be a boon for users: industrial, graphic, and sundry designers, visual artists, etc. As I see it today, iPad Pro is a niche product, not a mass-market pro tablet like the ones made by PC manufacturers. Everyone else can either just continue using iPads or use full featured laptops. Contrast this with the Surface Pro.
In those cases, most people would want to have full photoshop/ z brush instead of an app.
Theres also lots of artists who have reviewed the surface pro line favorably. Notably penny arcade's Mike K, and MTG's Noah Bradley.
When designers/visual artists are going to look at the market they are going to see surface pro, not iPad pro.
To top it off - The pro is also relatively closer to the cintiq ideal. Couple that with the iPad pro's price point?
How will you justify getting an iPad pro? The parallax, accuracy and hands on reviews aren't out yet.
I don't see who in the digital design world would buy this, or why.

By that definition of file management it is the same as e.g. the Dropbox app isn't it? Not "true" file management like iFile or such apps (jb).
On the other hand, a Surface Pro is truly a replacement for a laptop as it features a full blown Windows 8 (or 10, now).
