I hate wasting ui space by forcing every application to use their window real estate for a menu bar. There should be only one menu bar in the same location that changes when the context changes. It’s one of my favorite aspects of macOS.

It doesn't waste space. Windows can overlap; it's one of the fundamental aspects of windowing GUIs. Having a single menu glued to the top of the screen permanently wastes THAT space.

Strange argument.
