> Input lag is the topmost issue

What do you mean? I haven't daily driven a Mac in almost five years now. I mainly run Linux and occasionally Windows on regular PCs. Whenever I open a MacBook, the first thing I notice is how reactive it feels. Sure, I could do without the animations, but I think that's a different issue. This impression is all the more pronounced if I'd been using Windows just before, but that's probably because Linux is a pretty bare i3 setup.





I mean mouse (Magic Mouse, precisely) and trackpad lag. The Magic Mouse also had random stuttering, a really horrible experience on brand new hardware. There were also other pain points. Returning to "standard" PC hardware and Linux was a real bliss.
