The Macintosh 128K had a resolution of 512×342 and the Amiga main resolution was 320×200 (60 Hz, NTSC), or 320×256 (50 Hz, PAL). It' very lower. And if you had an Amiga you wanted to use this resolution because you wanted all the colours.
And there is this: "The Mac had specifically square pixels, and small. That monitor was supposed to be a big deal, with pixels exactly 1 point wide and 1 point tall."
The other point which did not suit for a professional environment is the flashy look of the workbench at the time and the free size of icons which can rapidly lead to a merry chaos.
Console roots, yes. The colours was choosed to operate on a TV.
However Commodore had a card to play in the artistic field I think. They did not push it.
