This isn’t really an answer to your question but it is related, and sticks in my mind as one of the biggest red flags of Apple’s constant enshitification after Steve Jobs’ death:

At some point in the Big Cat line of MacOS they either changed or forgot to implement a simple UI label change for a function—that being ejecting a “disk” (be it external usb device, optical media, application installer, etc.) the usual way to do it is of course dragging it to the trash—this has been the way in MacOS since time immemorial, and in the big cat series of the mid 2000’s when you performed this function the label “Trash” would change to “Eject” (the trash can would also change to an eject icon—icon may still change? I only have a Mac at work these days so can’t double check)

Anyway, this has been the case since about… 2011? Nowadays it just says “Trash” regardless of what you are either trying to delete or eject.

Other things like the angled corners of the new iPhones not really jiving with the swipe up of the buttonless models: this gesture made sense with the rounded edges of the iPhone 6–not so much the 12 and on.

The little touches that are missing these days just show that the company does not hold itself to the same QA standards it once did and clearly has some very disconnected / dysfunctional interdepartmental communication.
