> Can you move the menu bar on Mac? Can we not just accept that this is a design decision and move on?

Yes, you can put the Dock on any side of the screen, plus you can pin it to the beginning or end of the chosen side. Those options have been in there since 10-dot-0 even before there was official UI to control them. TinkerTool was popular for this: https://www.bresink.com/osx/0TinkerToolClassic/details.html



The dock is not the menu bar.


My comparison is more appropriate because the Dock and the Taskbar are both the thing that shows the list of running programs and open windows.


Your answer to the question started with yes. This was not appropriate.

Their comparison was bad because no one wanted to move the menu bar. Not because the menu bar and task bar have different functions.


Dock ≠ Menu Bar
