The genius part about this is your two "monitors" look the same. This is literally a significant part of why I've never purchased an iMac. Now you've given me an idea...

Target Display kind of sucked in that you needed a fully functional installation of MacOS running the entire time too. It’s nice that the feature was there of course, but I never found it pleasant to use.
