What features of Ghidra do you find lacking?

I've only recently started using it, after being an IDA user for many, many years, and would be interested to know in advance where it falls short, in comparison with IDA or just generally.

Not parent, but shifted pointers is something that's sorely missed when you need it. There's a few other bugs/annoyances, none are deal breakers, but they do build up. The interface is also quite clunky for big projects.
Hadn’t heard of shifted pointers before, thanks. There is an open PR to Ghidra which adds them, they seem very useful. I’ve run into many places which would benefit from them.
