I'm not defending Apple, but tech-oriented users have always been pushing for more features.

The question is should there be a middle ground between keeping the product trivially simple, or cramming an increasing amount of features to satisfy power users. Either extreme works well for a specific subset of Apple's user base; a middle ground is more prone to leaving everybody confused and/or unsatisfied.

I have zero UI design experience so can't really chime in. Maybe a toggle option inside a menu that swaps app modes? Leave it off and you have a very basic Notes app; toggle it and you get all the bells and whistles, tags, folders, parsing... But this totally causes the problem you describe in your last paragraph.

Agree, 'STARE' is my go-to in regular wordle and this one stumped me at first. Still managed a 4/5/7/6 solve :)

Agreed, but I think the analogy should follow the pencil, not the person. This seems to shift focus towards that someone who made the $10m. What does the buyer who just spent $10m do with the pencil? Do they hoard it as a trophy, or does it become a tool that provides some value to society?

Dangerous <everything> must be removed from roads. There is a non-negligible amount of bikers skipping red lights, or using the sidewalk (forbidden in many cities), or even going the opposite way on one-way streets. The rationale in most cases is that a bike is not a motor vehicle and thus should not observe the same rules. This is a problem even in a scenario without cars, as it leads to collision vs. other bicyclists or pedestrians.

This behaviour from a few individuals pushes anti-bikers to protest even more, making it harder for these initiatives to thrive.

As ridiculous as it sounds, a deterrent similar to a license plate may become a necessity.

Social interaction in one's free time is a matter of preference - you can stay home alone, or ring up a friend and go for a coffee.

Maybe eventually people can find a group of friends/acquaintances with which they can also hang out and have a coffee, while each tends to their own work?
