It's more of a marketing-first approach than user-first.

There is something I'm impatiently waiting for though: Optimization so it doesn't take 5+ seconds for Photoshop to load and be usable. Why doesn't it load within 100ms on $3,000 modern hardware? It's image editing software, not Grand Theft Auto!

That's where some energy could be put and make a real, tangible difference to everyone.

It kinda is Grand Theft Auto, though. Most of the opening time is spent locating assets and plugins to build menus (and all of those can be added or removed without launching Photoshop).
