Used a Mac full time three years.

Having to

-move the pointer diagonally across two screens, then pick something in a submenu (carefully, I think the submenu disappears if you don’t hit the end of the first menu and instead tries to move directly to the item in the sub menu)

- and back again

is one of the things I never miss.

MacOS's dual monitor implementation puts the current window's menubar on the current screen now, so at least you don't have to go across two screens.
macOS treats click-hold and click-release differently for menus. Click-hold is for when you want the menu to disappear by itself, click-release for when you want it to stay open until you click on something else.
