> menu system that closes the menu if you click at a submenu?

Mine doesn't do this, unless I'm misunderstanding what you mean by submenu (I'm thinking of the thing that has a > at the end. Also why would you want to click it when it opens automatically on hover?)

> if I opened a dialog

So close it, or look up the thing before you open a modal, a rather common concept across many platforms.

Granularity is bad... why exactly? But a tip, get HyperSwitch (this is the real reason for writing this comment)

The last one I don't even get how you mean the OS designer would get involved with how exactly applications are made. What would the alternative mechanism be, forcing (how?) them to put everything in menus? What about right-click menus, should they be banned? How is any of this unique to Apple?

I'm not saying they are infallible, but these are some weird ass examples.



> Get Hyperswitch

I'm guessing you don't mean the payment platform, and the loads of other stuff I found while searching for that. Looks like quite a saturated name!

Anyway, for the curious: https://bahoom.com/hyperswitch
