I'm glad that you brought this up because Resolve is even worse in this scenario, because it inexplicably applies the Timeline aspect ratio to the Source Viewer.
Furthemore, and even more inexplicably, if you open the Inspector, it disables the Dual Viewer mode even if you have an ocean of horizontal space available.
Now lets see how a more capable UI fares. Inspector open? Check. Media Pool? Check. 16x9 source visible with correct aspect ratio? Check. Plenty of vertical timeline space? Check. Nice, large Timeline Viewer? Check.
There's been talk of "religious wars" here and I can only surmise that to be the case for defending Resolve's UI capabilities, because I cannot fathom a rational position for it, in the face of overwhelming evidence that superior systems exist, and have existed for many,
many years now, while we're in here telling people "Why don't you just get a second monitor?"
