>And yes, I could do better. Remove the notch. ta-da !
I can do one better. Don't buy it! Ta-da! Notch gone from your life and you can be happy again.
Consider that you are wrong and are not adept to designing products when compromises need to be made.
If you like it so much, take a piece of black tape and apply a notch to all your screens. I'll continue to criticize bad design.
It's a compromise, not a feature in itself. I get more screen for the compromise of having a small portion of it be blacked out. If you hate it so much, cover the entire menu bar with black tape and change the resolution and pretend like that's how it came if you want less screen space for no reason.
In the kindest way possible, consider that you may have OCD or similar. Like others have said, we haven't noticed or thought about this once in years of using it all day everyday. Preferring worse function (read: less display) over form (read: no notch) is not the galaxy brain you think it is.
Oh you want more display? Lets add 20 notches to the bezel and stuff some pixels where we don't have any screws and fasteners.
Sorry dude, I'm having a real tough time taking your pro-notch argument seriously. Lets agree to disagree here. I'm tapping out.
