Yeah proxies would be the way to go with this - that or short form content. You could easily have a bunch of high quality videos on an iPad to edit a single 2 or 3 minute video which may be their target audience here. Once you are done send those high quality source files up to a cloud storage and delete them locally. Personally I am still waiting for someone to really get the proxy workflow right - it still requires too much manual control and planning. Someone needs to create a very robust asset management plane that does a better job of autolinking files when they are accidentality unlinked (could be easily done with a simple AI analyzing video content of different files along with an audio analyzer).

Someone needs to create a very robust asset management plane that does a better job of autolinking files when they are accidentality unlinked (could be easily done with a simple AI analyzing video content of different files along with an audio analyzer). I'm hoping that the iPad app will push BM to be the ones to do this. Given that the concept of a filesystem on an iPad is very different (yeah, the Files app exists but it's terribly buggy if you are using network shares and stuff) and the need for auto-linking goes up quite a bit. If their MVP iPad app evolves into something that "just works" across devices, then I think they will have a really good value proposition in a field where short-form or fast produced social media content can be done on the go.
