There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.

I really want something that can auto-programmaticaly cut a perfect loop from shorter audio samples

If I was on Android (which I'm not) I would want an Android clone of Apple Shortcuts/Automations, I literally wouldnt buy or daily drive something I couldnt metaprogram to do all the niche little oddities I have mine do and continually add to

Edit: looks like Tasker is the closest Android equivalent to Apple Shortcuts

Well if you have various phone models that support display over the USB port, then you can plug the phone into a PC dock and you will get the screens, keyboard and mouse working. If you need a Linux terminal you can setup Termux.

Samsung's flagship have DEX mode when you dock and you get a full Desktop experience, many versions back it was a Linux environment... Now its a more closed android desktop, but still great for travelling light and connecting for work stuff when at hotel or office has workspaces.

I know ๐Ÿ˜“ but my Xiaomi doesn't really do that out of the box...

Next phone will though, or I'll stay on an old one til there is one (fairphone or other with graphene os I guess).
