Having experienced exactly this situation, I was lucky I kept automated backups and went back an hour or two after I installed it. TimeMachine ftw.

As a side note, the headline seemed a fun one, it seemed to me to say “you are not dumb, but you just lack a few prerequisites to be dumb”.

I think it’s okay to be paranoid in this space. Most of us are playing the role of consumers here. Strictly identifying the data collected, and identifying Apple’s interest/ disinterest in using that data for its own shareholder’s profit is definitely worth looking at from a consumers pov.

I have always thought of it as a way to figure out what doesn't work and get to a final design, not necessarily code. Personally, it's easy to verify a solution and figure out use cases that wouldn't work out. Keep on iterating until I have either figured out a mental model of the solution, or figured out the main problems in such a hypothetical solution.
