Well, at least what we all can see:
a) there are ways too many little things that do not get address - eg notes are cut off when triggering UltraBeat with Logic Seq
b) UltraBeat is the best example for a buggy implementation of a new feature - look at sample handling - if that is ease of use what Apple wants to stay for - well, I may have gotten something wrong .....
c) we have to pay for minor updates and bug fixes and are told it is ok, because we get another 2GB of GarageBand stuff
d) exs seemed just be got dropped - there are stupid limitation for zones per instruments, a really "Apple GUI-guideline conform" editor (and it was enhanced und the Apple Logo - and they did not get it right!) etc.
e) OSX is an Operation systems which implies a limit of 12 000 open files - no matter how much memory you have - so it is obviously tailored for Image stuff and not for huge sample libs with millions of single samples .... this is since years now!
f) concerning surround (plugins) Apple is the brake that Steinberg was over years for Side chaining in plugins ....

... one could go on .....

I can export and import mp3 but what about 32bit float ????

The announcement of sample accurate selection in Arrange View (or how they call it) with version 7 could be easily seen as a joke or provocation. pathetic ....

Logic has one major advantage - Steinberg is just too crappy to take advantage of the obvious situation .....

best
