@chockenberry @siracusa why, by Steve Jobs turtleneck sweater, would they start dicking around with things that aren’t broken and keep features to full OS releases?! (answer: the weird artificial one-year release cycle they have for no reason)

macOS Sonoma 14.1 - followed a week later by 14.1.1 because of a bug in the WindowServer that flipped the Y coordinate of click events.
macOS likema 14.2 - followed a week later by 14.2.1 because of a bug in the WindowServer and how it tracks sessions.
Guess who found both bugs and had to deal with the fallout? Me.
Both of these bugs are in parts of the WindowServer that have been stable for a long time (in first case, decades!)
No one like emergency point releases, so what's wrong?
