However, I gotta say... it astonishes me how many Mac users insist that if it's Mac, it must be intrinsically better. It's as if they believe their decision to use Mac will be subject to attack if they admit the OS is flawed in any way.

Brilliant design choice, Apple!" I use both OSs regularly and probably have a very slight preference for the Mac.
