That’s not a complaint have heard before. My needs aren’t huge and it has a lot more of everything than I need.

I wouldn’t want anything else in it, but with a Mac mini I really wish it would run something Linux more easily. They are a great headless server, but the OS is really limiting.
Apple Silicon Macs are a 180. Fantastically fast and efficient hardware stuck with an increasingly locked down OS, zero upgrade path and still a premium price.
If you’re holding on to the memory of Intel Macs I can certainly agree, they were not great.
But yeah, going from a more standard trackpad to a decent, large haptic one is night and day and basically made me stop using a mouse on-the-go in most situations. It now genuinely seems crazy to me that you can buy expensive, "premium" laptops without one.
To go off your McDonald's analogy, you can get a lot of kCals without necessarily getting a lot of nutrients.
Edit: GP comment wasn't yours, but I think my point still stands.
Skill issue.
