16 bit raw recorded as 12 bit Log ProRes RAW? This is the only camera to do this right? Guessing it doesn’t really matter though for 99% of cases.

Well lets see... 
dual card slots might be the thing that saves your ass if card 1 manages to fail
A brighter sharper evf will make manually focusing easier, the best lenses in the world are still manual focus only
higher fps gives a better chance of getting "the shot" this is big for anyone that does sports, you just have more to pick one when it comes time to cull
high res allows you to crop in even more with less noticeable detail loss..
more native lenses gives more creative choices in what you can shoot. Remember back in 2013 when Sony had like 4 full frame lenses??
 
If all this doesn't matter, then what happens if/when the next gen Z6/Z7 have dual card slots, an even better EVF, faster burst rate, and higher res sensors???

Comparison of A7R IV should be along with Z7( and S1R) not Z6.

Dude of course you have to be a better photographer. That's a given. It's a bad argument though. The A7RIV has better AF, Better Dynamic Range (advertised, still needs tested), Dual Card Slots, Better EVF, higher FPS burst, much higher resolution, along with more native lenses. Those are quite a few areas of superiority, which for some will make it a better stills tool. 
Your argument is the equivalent of saying there's no point buying a BMW over a Subaru because you need a good driver to get it around the track. That's true, but a good driver might choose a BMW for it's better onroad-track specs and be faster because of it. 
A better photographer will be able to use a more capable tool more effectively or efficiently, and for some the A7RIV will be a better tool. 
We all know this. Sure it's not competitive for video, but for stills it's a pretty nice piece of gear.

So looking at eBay in Canada almost everything ships from the states. Most of the items take 2 weeks to ship. So in places other than the U.S. and Europe a time limit of 2 weeks does make it more challenging

Are you shooting your interviews in outhouses?
 
 
With tungsten, you also get a smoother color spectrum, greater beam control and a higher power density.
 
 
I saw it at NAB.  I doesn't look as bright as Tota with a 750w bulb.
 
 
Here's a tip:  never touch the glass part of a quartz bulb, because the oils from your skin will cause it to eventually pop (explode).
 
Always use a clean paper towel to hold the bulb when lamping a fixture.  Don't use a facial tissue -- it can be impregnated with moisturizing oils.
 
If you accidentally touch the glass part of a quartz bulb, do not turn it on until you have first cleaned it with a new paper towel and isopropyl alcohol.

So looking for some help getting my first lighting kit. It will mainly be for 2 point interview set-ups but it might be used for general fill or broll lighting. I was originally looking at the aputure tri8c but it's $670 CAD vs the h672w at $281 CAD. I was also looking at the ls 120d ii but it's $1k plus softbox and fresnel. I wanted to start out under $1k CAD and go from there. I should probably look at lights other than aputure but the amount of lights is overwhelming. I'm not very knowledgeable about lights so any recommendations are welcome. 

Thanks for the help! I really appreciate the input
@Zach Goodwin2I was aiming for under $750 USD or $1000 CAD
@tupp I like that idea, but I was thinking going with one capable of being battery powered would give me greater versatility. (I sometimes shoot in buildings without electricity or places that aren't near an outlet) I'll have to look into that option more though and maybe consider powered ones in the future? 

Technically it's 1:01 but I'm counting it as a minute. To stay within the time limit I just used a LUT and did some basic corrections. (I screwed up on the outdoor shots, I thought my ND filter was maxed and so I stopped down to f8 and still blew the highlights, but in reality that vari ND filter turns the opposite way and I keep forgetting that.) Anyways enough talk here's the video:
