There's no need to be so angry about a hypothetical situation in which you by a laptop that you never wanted. I just prefer simplicity right now. I'm a PhD student and I don't need the code to be super fastz just need it to work right now. As it stands j just got it all to run under native so I guess my slight modicum of patience you don't have lags dividends :)

Nothing hypothetical about being an early adopter and then complaining and wasting months since the November 2020 release day chaos that several software is still unavailable or unstable, the very basic software doesn't even run on the system and the excessive disk writes on the M1 quickly wears the SSD on the machine. All completely real and happened to many people since launch day.
So, what's the point of buying a laptop that doesn't even run your software in the first place? Might as well stay on your existing laptop.
You would rather wait N amount of months for the software to mature and use the laptop reliably for your work than to skip all of that, use your existing laptop and get a better one? (M2 Mac).
Why would I want to wait for months for the developers to port their software and its library ecosystem to Apple Silicon or waste time with broken workarounds when I can use my existing laptop that already 'just works' with everything.
Mind you, I actually bought the M1 MBA recently to try it out and returned it at full price due to the software ecosystem not being ready. Not only I saved my money, I >5x'd that money it in a recent investment anyway and now I'm glad I did that.
