To be fair, prior to broadcom purchase symantec was not known fo high product quality

In the sysadmin world, Backup Exec and Norton products are meme's at this point, examples of the worst kind of software

so I am not sure how it could have gone down in quality

The consumer grade Symantec software and enterprise Symantec software were always different.

Norton never had any real bearing on SEP.

The consumer side of Symantec was not sold to Broadcom and became Norton Lifelock.
