Goodness no. Anyone who upgrades into a new major version before at least the .1 or .2 update is asking for a world of bugs, and is pretty much by definition an early adopter.
The HomeView has a 1:1 display, the Duo has 1:1.4 displays. Not really similar. Although I would expect any devs (had there been a SDK) to start with their iPad apps, which are expected to adapt to different window sizes.
Dock on the bottom can move between displays. Dock on the left/right is stuck on the leftmost/rightmost display, which can be annoying if you regularly switch between laptop-only and laptop-plus-external-displays layouts.
A typical desktop OS runs ~100 processes before you get to run anything. Even if you would delegate one core to system stuff, most programs are multi-threaded, so you are going to run out of cores quickly.

This dev was replaced by his own agents.
Maybe if you hadn't outsourced your job to Claude, you wouldn't be bored. And if you're forced to do so by manglement, why would you also outsource this toy project?
That would not be without precedent. When we decided that certain internet platforms were too big to moderate, we let them get away with hosting all kinds of illegal content.
The Chinese are not as flush with compute as to afford to just forget a few thousand agents running for a few weeks.
They also aren't the ones screaming about how close they are to destroying the world. They're approaching the tech like building a tool rather than a god.
OpenAI and Anthropic have shown us that they have a strong incentive to leave holes in their systems so they can use them for marketing and regulatory capture.
I know what good faith looks like from BS and only give back what I receive. Your entire comment history is this: "If the Western AI companies get their way,"
Ah yes, I'm engaging in bad faith because I am opposed to the actions of western AI companies, while you're engaging in good faith because "Chyna bad" regardless of real differences between their approach to this technology and completely ignoring that several incidents were made public by third parties, flawless logic.
Latitude is only half the picture, when someone wakes up and how they spend their days also matters. I was really unhappy with DST when I had to wake up at an ungodly hour to school in the dark most of the year (except for the few days/weeks in March before the clock change).
