VGA input is pass through only. Just a switch. Useless for native 15KHz Amiga video.

OK so you could use this with the silver sync dongle in double scan modes but they are really workbench only, i.e. not games.

As you said this input could be used for an RTG gfx card to switch between RTG and Amiga native.

Ok, yes if you added SVHS output to your Amiga you'd get a slightly better picture when using one of these but it is not what I'd consider a native Amiga output. Good point though.
