"they have sane defaults" is the most insane thing I heard about Macs. Their stupid fucking defaults is what I hate the most about macs. Example: enter key. Its default behavior is to RENAME a file while you have to hit a two key combo to open a file. That will never make sense to me. Might sound like a minor thing, but the whole system is so full of such small annoying things. At first I thought it was annoying because I was not used to that stuff, but I've been using a Mac for quite a while now and I still find the OS mostly annoying.

Perhaps rather than saying it's stupid, you can just say "it's not for me" as I stated I've been a long term Linux user, installing everything from Arch to Void, I even did a brief stint using LFS, I enjoy Linux however I prefer macOS, but I don't go around saying I hate Linux because I don't there is nothing wrong with it, i just prefer the way macOS works and that is a preference.

Likely macOS is just not the correct choice for you.
