A sports motorcycle from 2026 is made for people who don't really care about motorcycles. The engine is super tight, performant, doesn't leak oil, doesn't give you any problems, doesn't need tuning or maintenance outside of regular check-ups. You get on it and go. And it's much safer because of automatic safety systems.

Sports motorcycles used to be for people who care about motorcycles. Breakdowns, unsafe, finicky, tuning the carburetor if you went between mountains and sea level. You didn't just get on it and go. You had to know about motorcycles if you were an owner. And each individual model had their individual quirks.

Which option is better?

> You get on it and go.

While I see your point, that's not the reality of mac laptops to my eyes.

The stupidest example: I just want to play Steam games. Will they work on my mac? who knows, probably not.

Other basic stuff: can I 2FA without owning any other Apple device ? What happens if I owned an iPhone but switched to android ? etc.

"it just works" stopped being true for a pretty long time now IMHO.

		A sports bike doesn't work for every task nor is it ideal for every task neither. A diesel truck has more horse power and is more customizable, if that's what you need.
