imagine legitimately thinking that windows is better than templeos

For the price of a macbook air I can get a new thinkpad with windows 10 pro.

What if you're just comparing the two operating systems, everything else constant?

Then macOS is far, far better.

MacOS is shit. I say that as a dev, who also has to develop for iOS from time to time.
I used MBPs as both my daily drivers and a dev machine.
MacOS isn't "good". It never was. Sure, macOS was better for non-Windows development that Windows 8.1 and prior but even back then it wasn't "good".
It does a couple of things right - mostly basic UI stuff being actually user-friendly in some situations, and the UI design, while isn't particularly good, is at least consistent as opposed to Windows 10.
Aside from that, macOS severely lacks functionality. UI might be more "user-friendly" in some cases, but it reveals itself to be terribly suited for "power-users". Appstore is about as good of a source of software as Microsoft store, meaning it's fucking shit and people shouldn't ever use it beyond installing some mandatory Apple-made stuff for development.
MacOS is also notoriously terrible at managing system resources. Putting a macOS-driven PC under heavy load makes the said PC completely unusable.
Essentially, the choice to go with macOS over Windows (10) boils down to the availability of exclusive software, unless we are talking about personal preference which I can respect.
Meanwhile, Windows 10 is currently the most versatile development platform out there between WSL and Hyper-V, has by far the widest selection of available software, has the best built-in driver support, great at resource management, has a functionally powerful GUI, has a shitload of features (as in "things it can do"), etc.
Legit complains regarding Windows 10 generally amount to UI inconsistency which is while inexcusable - is minor - and to its telemetry. I personally have no issues with the telemetry and I rarely understand people who do. Not exactly because I do not understand the concept of "privacy" but rather due to said people going to great lengths in order to disable said telemetry and in result taking much higher risks that it could ever be.

You sound like someone who has never used Unix before. macOS has all the functionality of any Unix or Unix-like OS. Who cares about the "app store" when you can easily compile anything you need? WSL in Windows is a buggy mess and most nuseful software either runs poorly in Windows or not at all. Windows has no access to a usable shell, is not POSIX compliant, and has no good package manager, so you have to fuck around and use a bunch of hacks just to get a usable system out of it.

Windows has commando vm
What does osx have for security
