Your only argument is still "It can't be a true phablet because it's too big". Now to me, that's not "other parameters". That is ONE parameter: size.

By portability/carryability, I also mean being able to carry it hip holstered with a belt clip/holster. Show me the belt clip/holster made for an iPad mini

Also, this review says that the workstand on the Griffin Survivor can be used as a belt hook: <http://www.bloghotel.org/decnova/388658/>although Griffin doesn't market it as such: <http://store.griffintechnology.com/survivor-custom-case-for-ipad-mini>

BTW, the "one handed hold & operation" bit starts a lot smaller than one expects; reportedly it was why Jobs went as small as he did with the iPhone...but technology marches on and one alternative solution today from Japan is to build a bigger hand, via a thumb extender:
