This sells it for me then.
Just as you were writing that I was reading that others are using the iPad with Google Jamboard app to create an incredible whiteboarding setup too.

I should ask... are you using a stand for the iPad?

I got a little stand from Amazon and then I got the Magic Keyboard when it was released. I alternate depending on what I'm doing, as there's a few things I need the iPad in portrait mode for, mainly Zoom meetings where I'm dealing with lots of papers (this doesn't work with Sidecar yet).

I’ve just got the MBP 13” and a 12.9” iPad Pro to use as a second monitor while I’m working from home. And it works really well for me.
I’ve found virtual meetings really good, using the MBP as the main screen for the meeting and then the iPad Pro for documents. And I work between two documents regularly, hence the second screen. Sidecar seems pretty robust and I haven’t had major any issues yet.
And the Magic keyboard for the iPad Pro really makes it into very workable device by itself.
