Don't blame Cook, blame the person in charge of MacOS. Cook is just a CEO, he can't be on top of every single detail of everything that's going on. He may not be aware of this bug. You can alway send him a message.
Yes it is unreasonable to expect him to personally be involved in this bug. I know Apple is a lot bigger now than it was then. I don’t so much mean literally this situation.
Just picture Cook asking someone “why the **** doesn’t it do that.” I just miss that kind of incisiveness in their product decisions.
Clearly there is no one still at the Mac division with that kind of drive to make the Mac great.
On the other hand, I wish more CEOs would just sit down and use their own products like their users would.
I remember a famous email from Bill Gates years ago asking Microsoft why it was so hard to just download Windows Movie Maker from Microsoft’s website. Microsoft’s website was and is terrible, didn’t seem to accomplish much, but it is notable when the people who are ostensibly in charge of these things actually have to use them and run in to the same problems we do.
I find it hard to believe Cook spends a lot of time dealing with macOS notifications, for example. Steve would have put his Mac through the ****ing window…of the office of the person who approved that design.
