A Condensed After Effects App for the iPad

I'm not asking to run MAC/PC After Effects as a native app on an iPad because that would be too much, nor am I asking to be able to use AE by screen-mirroring your Mac or PC to the iPad. Instead, I'm asking if it can be ported, reprogrammed, or repackaged as a condensed mobile app version that works on the iPad similarly to Illustrator, Adobe Fresco, and Photoshop. Given the ever-increasing need for moving images or motion pictures in today's environment, it becomes imperative to be impulsive in meeting these needs when you consider the accessibility and ease of doing so. WORK-ON-THE-GO is always a possibility, thus I'm employing Adobe to consider this as many pro apps are already porting to the iPad.

Honestly, if you bring After Effects to iPad, you’ll gain millions of new users. A lot of creators only use iPads because they’re powerful and portable. If you release even a lighter version of After Effects for iPad, it could become one of the best creative apps in the world. Please make it happen!

Please bring After Effects to iPad. Many creators edit on iPad Pro and would love a mobile version of After Effects, even if it has fewer features than the desktop app

Considering Adobe After Effects limited staff capabilities I'd like to downvote this idea.
Those who use Ae professionaly (not impulsively in meetings) are asking and sometimes waiting long times for usability improvement and fixing all kind of issues which should be a priority.
You can always bring laptop to a meeting.
