Yeah… that’s a pipe dream for some of us. I’m stabilizing every single shot in this piece I’m working on and have producers making changes every hour – I can’t afford to spend time roundtripping a stabilized shot with every tweak. The concept of a workflow (edit, then color, then vfx, then audio, etc…) doesn’t exist for a lot of us now, everything has to be done simultaneously because the turnarounds are so tight.
That being said, you’re correct.
