Apple is still selling the Mac Pro that is unchanged from the 2013 model for full price. It's abundantly clear that they either don't know what professionals want or they don't care.

Exactly. OP comment is thinking that professionals are the one spending the most money. I strongly disagree without knowing any statistics but I'm going to assume by looking at the sheer number of macbooks that young people have to look at youtube and iphones to have cool photo filters are their major market. Like I said, I don't have any statistics, but I'm willing to put money on it. The ones that have money can afford the high end stuff but they are always not professionals
