But shouldn't it be enough to notice? I've tried swapping the connections to a speaker before and there is precisely zero noticeable difference.

You have an intuitive mind.
 
Every car is different. I've replaced spark plugs in an Infiniti where the
engine has to come out. For you to say, "funny, whenever I've replaced
spark plugs (and I've replaced a lot in my cars), I've never had to lift
the engine", is just telling us you haven't done enough engines yet! :)
 
Likewise, I've replaced what amounts to the PCV valve in a BMW (they call
it a CCV) where the amount of stuff that has to be removed is nothing like
that of a typical American car so for you to say something like "funny,
whenever I've replaced PCV (and I've replaced a lot in my cars), I've never
had to lift the intake manifold", is just telling us you haven't done
enough engines yet! :)

You just don't have the expertise yet - but you will soon.
 
The iPad doesn't have cellular. It's WiFi only. And if it had cellular, it
wouldn't work, since the neighbor's SIM card wouldn't even fit, let alone
work. And they are on Verizon anyway, but it still wouldn't work as they
had puny cellphones.
 
You don't have the expertise yet to understand the problem set
sufficiently, (likely because you have no experience with iOS perhaps?)
which is fine but which seems to be the case.
 
Remember, it took only a minute or three to set this up, whereas what
you're suggesting is either impossible (putting the tablet on their wifi
network) or impractical by way of comparison (using a puny cell phone when
a tablet is better).
 
What would be preferable, instead of suggesting impossible or impractical
solutions, would be to suggest a one-step (instead of two-step) solution to
get the video onto the WiFi-only iPad.
 
Now *that* would be a useful suggestion (because it would take intelligence
and expertise to solve that problem, which is something that is not
intuitive).

I see it as common sense.

If I can't access A without removing B in the engine bay, I take it to the garage. I don't even change my own oil. I do however buy my own parts on Ebay. This really pisses off the garage who likes to make money on markup. I get them to do a service/MOT check and give me a list of what's wrong with it, then I turn up a few days later with all the parts and insist they only charge for the labour on the bill. If they refuse, bringing up the subject of ripoff and markup frightens off other customers and they get on with it.

Car designers never seem to think of servicing ease.

Then the ipad is a piece of shit. Use whatever phone of yours or theirs has cellular access.

I avoid IOS because I know it's rubbish.

Stop using an Ipad. Surely there are normal tablets (as in non-Apple) that can access the cell network?
