Seriously. Wtf. I place my tablet down flat on my counter tops 24/7.

I dont even use my tablet camera!! How could they justify making the device uneven for a camera few people use, and for a camera where the old one worked perfectly fine for its purpose.

Seriously wtf move by apple. The camera bump a game-ruiner. I'm irrationally pretty upset by this.

Yes. In reviews of the original iPad Pro most people say that it is a tool best used for laying flat and using the pen. You can't do that with a bulge without a case (Back+Front=$118?!)

Uh, iPad Pro cases are like $20 on Amazon. I found one for $15.

But they can be inconvenient. I have a cover on my air 2 to protect the glass but not on the back. It slides more easily into and out of my bag this way.

My 6s+ has the identical lens protrusion -- much less than the bulge on the 6 -- less than a mm. It feels like it lies flat on the table -- certainly it doesn't wobble. The iPad, with its greater baseline, will have even less reason to wobble.
