macOS has grey menu bar where the notch is, that stays unused 100% of the time.

The XCode menus on my 2015 MBP 15" go well into the 'notch zone'.

Yeah I wonder how this will be resolved. The screenshots of Photoshop on the Apple store page show a menu that runs quite close to the notch. Will menu items be truncated or pop up randomly on the other side? How will it work for less terse languages like German?

I routinely don't have enough space there. Any professional app (and these laptops are squarely aimed at professionals) will eat into this "unused gray space".
Add a few apps that add ions to the menu bar, and suddenly you already have no space even without the notch.
