They aren't, otherwise you wouldn't have to pick the lightest of them and pick only 1


The lightest one? What about the display colour mismatch, which is literally one of the first things I calibrate away when I get a new laptop, even on macbooks? Imagine moaning about two displays from completely different manufacturers and production dates showing different colours...

Or maybe the auto-dimming feature which can be disabled by software?

Or the touchpad which is 'too sensitive when scrolling'....


> first things I calibrate away

How? Do you expect every user to have an easier access to color calibration hardware devices to fix this issue compared to a software fix they could find after some googling???

> auto-dimming feature which can be disabled by software

He also disabled the led via software, so you failed to point out why this one is easier

> the touchpad which is 'too sensitive when scrolling'....

How is this lighter? Touching the touchpad is a very frequent action, so the deficiency will affect you every day, and you can’t fix it by looking up some systemd service unlike the LED, and you can’t put a sticker on it to dim it. So how is an unsolvable frequent issue more trivial than a solvable one?
