Windows has pretty great high dpi, Apple privacy is pretty awful and they hide everything they are doing, security is definitely getting worse on MacOS while the opposite is the case on Windows. And Apple still doesn't super touchscreen which is an immediate deal breaker
There's a lot of [citation needed] here, as for touchscreen I can see Apple's point also, I've never had any desire at all to sit there with my arm outstretched poking a PC display (and covering it in fingerprints too). I've played with touchscreen laptops and it feels just as arm-tiring and unnatural as they said.
Windows privacy is shocking. Windows security used to be shocking so it improving is just returning to average. I don't see any reason to think Apple devices security is getting worse. If anything it's actually getting better.
