If you need to combine a modifier key with a mouse gesture you've lost. There's just zero way to frame that as anything but a kludge.

Double-clicking the title bar, a typical Apple feature that is totally undiscoverable except by stumbling upon it or having someone show you.

But not of course by reading the instructions that come with it, right?

I don’t remember any instructions coming with any Mac I’ve bought I. The last decades. The license/warranty info sure, but actual printed documentation is limited to a couple pages of to plug stuff together.

Print instructions would get outdated with each OS release. But they do have comprehensive online instructions which do cover how to maximise windows.

In addition, macOS and iOS come with a “Tips” app (yellow with a lightbulb icon) which covers several topics.

The Help menu bar item must be the most overlooked (under-looked?) part of Mac OS in history. it’s always there, never used!

What they’ve done with the CMD-? keyboard shortcut that nobody knows about has to be the most brilliant UI that nobody uses.

Oth of which involve extra motions (I have mild RSI issues, no no bueno), all to enable a behavior I can’t stand.
