The slowness might be explained by the background tasks of restoring previously installed software and data. I have an iPhone 13 Pro with tons of apps and it’s still pretty snappy. But those specific bugs do pop up from time to time. Especially since they release new phones concurrently with new operating systems.
What is the point of this? Does anyone enjoy this? Everyone knows what is being said based on the context?

No, it never went away. I had been coming from a Pixel, so I wasnt really forgiving about bugs, limited features, or slow animations. It felt like I bought an old phone. That + the otterbox really dispelled the illusion.

Sounds like you're your own worst enemy here. You're well within the return window and could easily do so and replace it with, uh... well... let us know which mobile OS has more polish than iOS, I guess.
They're not repairable, they're quite restrictive, and they're perhaps too simple. But definitely high quality.
Did it say "we care about quality so much that we've very carefully designed and built these, and tested them extensively to ensure that our customers have a quality experience"? No, it did not.
Not only that but there has been a refusal to acknowledge almost every single critical flaw in Apple's products and when they're finally pressured to do so, they brush it off.
This is just more culty bs.
Its cheaper to make something pretty, than good. Humans use this shortcut and have a hard time resisting it.
My experience opening an iphone box, giving all my personal information, and seeing the home screen of my work iphone was fun and exciting.
Then within a few minutes, the swiping/changing between apps was noticably slow, the podcast app had a bug in it, and it kept asking me to 'sign in' by typing my password. The illusion had broke, and its not like I was going to return the phone now.
