    • 2020 November 13, Andrew Griffin, quoting Craig Federighi, “Apple tells us how it made its new chip and MacBooks”, in The Independent‎:
      I've never felt more comfortable moving across our family of devices as a user, which I do hundreds of times a day than I do now, moving between iOS 14, iPadOS 14, and macOS Big Sur. They all just feel of a family – there's just less cognitive load to the switching process.
