what exactly is there to do on the iPad that you cannot do right now without sideloading?

the only thing I can think of is Apple’s $99 annual fee to develop for their platforms.

You cannot use an iPad as a developer platform. There’s no Xcode or Compiler, providing one is against the App Store policy so those apps just don’t exist in a meaningful manner.

Emulators. Or literally any app on Mac that is not available for iPad.
