This is exactly my thought as well.

Soo many things either work buggy, laggy, inconsistent, or don’t work at all

Filling bugs doesn’t help. And I don’t think anyone is inventive to fix bugs. Resolving sure. But closing WONTFIX or NEEDSINFO is also a resolution.

Most of what I do is chrome +Linux terminals and vscode anyway

And the only reason I’m on Mac is because of hardware, encryption, and ease of backup/restore/wipe, and the power struggle of Linux distros. freeBSD is not really an option

There's a windowing bug that was introduced in 2009 that I'm confident will persist until MacOS has another MacOSX-style transition to something entirely new. They need someone who cares about fit&finish more than features driving the ship. That's not what gets promoted to the top, unfortunately.
I’d be more than happy to spend a year polishing macOS and iOS for that matter
