First off windows updates are no more than the updates you get on a mac. They push an update every feww months, and just like a Mac if you skip it today, it's going to ask you again the next time until you update it.,
Yeah, I find the macOS updates way more intrusive / annoying (constantly telling it to stop bugging me).

Have feedback?
Yes, I realize MacOS is not touch friendly (Apple did have Inkwell a long time ago but abandonned pen and touch input for the desktop OS). As for meaningful differences, I think the overall polish of MacOS shows and the endless updates to my Windows machine makes me cringe every time I start it up. Who wants to waste half an hour while Windows runs a bunch of updates?
My point was that the hardware is nice and innovative. While I think the OLED function bar and e-ink keyboards Apple will eventually have is nice, I think they need to start looking towards more solutions like this and making MacOS touch friendly. Dare I say they should perhaps look into merging iOS and MacOS and bring touch to the desktop (perhaps sell a few extra Apple Pencils as well).
