> Now the Win11 UI is so slow that it feels like every click must be hitting telemetry first. When I right click I see the normal context menu briefly before the simplified context menu. Sometimes it’s so slow enough that buttons will move right before I click on them.

How is this an indication of UI/UX (where UX is how things should work, but not implementing it) failures? It sounds like this one is purely on the development org for writing someone that has poor performance and/or not prioritising improving it.

A slow UI is bad UX. UX should have pushed back in releasing a slow UI until the developer fixed it.

UX tends to have more power at MS than devs for exactly this reason so it is unlikely. Additionally it can still be bad UX even if it's not the fault of the UX designer.
