There are issues with AF, but that goes for Sony and Canon flagships as well. Overall, Nikon probably still is third in AF performance, but it's a very, very close third with the Z9. You do however need to know how to use the camera. A lot of the complaints about the AF online are from people who pick it up after using a much simpler camera like a D850 and expect to be able to get the most out of it without reading the manual or conducting tests.

Excuse me, a much simpler camera like the D850? I have an ebook here explaining its auto focus system, it's 200 pages.

Yeah, not saying it's a simple camera, but the AF system is simpler.
