Can you outline some other problems you have lost time to besides a software update? I agree that they’re pretty long too, but if that’s your only complaint it’s a bit moot since every OS provides a mechanism for installing updates during off hours.

Notwithstanding that you don't leave a zero day unpatched til after hours, some other time sinks:

* M1 compatability issues.

* Problems surrounding containers. Yes, I have used Rancher Desktop, yes I have used Colima. Neither is a first-class citizen. (As-per usual with Mac dev tools).

* Dual monitor.

* External keyboards, keyboard shortcuts, and customizations.
