There are hundreds of millions of professionals in the world who need a computer that works for their work and daily life and aren't server admins or software developers. Please let us have the Macs in peace. We only have this option, while you have dozens of different PC makers for your Linux.

"bring macOS up to parity with Linux" sounds like a direction of development which wouldn't be very desirable for people like me.

There is not a single Linux feature you have named that would impede your day-to-day workflow.

Linux users are like pickup truck drivers going to every motorcycle meeting to walk around complaining that motorcycles should be more like trucks. Different four strokes for different folks.

Mac users are like motorcycle drivers petitioning their city to replace the highway lanes with bike lanes. You are a second-class citizen here, having forgotten what roads are actually used for.

I'm sorry that you're absorbed in your fantasy, but it's not my job to accommodate it.

Motorcyclists are not drivers. Horses aren't cars.
