Ouigo comfort is far less than any Dutch IC-class stock. Maybe the Ouigo is on par with Sprinter-class stock, but even then it’s a stretch.

Compared to German stock — yes, the German stock is nicer (mainly has to do with different usage patterns, though — Netherlands train network has been said to resemble a country-sized metro network).

Outlets — who cares, just bring a power bank — again, compare to networks like London Overground or Paris RER.

That's so obviously incorrect that it'd be funny if those sprinters weren't so mightily uncomfortable. I guess it takes a Calvinist to prefer them.
