So much lies on its IQ (IQ <> DR) only could be maintened if you were very emotionaly damaged.
I loved my 5D3 and shot it as my main body beside my 1DX for 3 years or so. For me it wasn't a DR issue per se because I was shooting above 400ISO for the most part. The biggest limitation was I shot a lot of bald eagles and would expose for the white head leaving the dark brown feathers underexposed by 1-2 stops depending on light conditions. This then required lifting the shadows a certain amount. The main issue was the banding and patchy noise. This has been eliminated in the newer bodies and is a nice improvement. Even the 6D eliminated this issue a short while after the 5D3. The newer chips have improved low ISO DR on top of that.
My reference above to the 5D3 was in regard to the DPR severe shadow lifting showing the banding and colour noise. Which if compared against all the newer sensors and the 6D looks pretty bad.
This was what I was referencing in calling the 5D3 abysmal or whatever sensational term I used....
