macOS Tahoe is still full of annoyances like this: a notification inside *System Preferences* that cannot be gotten rid of, and it causes the list to look janky, with weird spacing for the list item and a misaligned "2".

I'd be happy with Classic or Aqua over 'Glass'

These days we don't seem to have many choices. When macs became Unix boxen (the days of the big cats) I was a mac guy. Today it seems like FreeBSD is the only OS that doesn't f* with you too much but it is the one that requires the most TLC to be productive with. As a software engineer it is an easy choice for me, much less so for my partner who is a pharmacist (brilliant lady but she still calls xterms "dos box").
