There are generally two schools of thought: one is that the programmer should know better, memorize the documention and specs. The other one is that if it violates the principle of least astonishment it's just badly designed. Personall

These kind of hidden extensibility in built-in functions make even seemingly simple code not work as expected: ["1", "2", "3"].map(parseInt) > [1, NaN, NaN]

Auditing binaries wouldn't really do anything as it's their hardware that'd run the binary. So the hardware can be programmed to lie or to still have some backdoor.

I wouldn't recommend XPS. I have version 9350 and it constantly have one problem after another. In no particular order: slow boot time (it can take 7 seconds to see dell logo after pressing power button), coil whine, a firmware update

Actually I read the rechargeable section but there is no explicit mention there of how quickly does the rechargeable battery provide power. Is this implied that it's not in quick bursts because it's rechargeable? Or maybe I missed

It's not that easy. I mean the code is there but the infrastructure needs to be provisioned and it takes time to gain trust in the CA world, see CACert.

The USB-C port is just for power and as far as I know it doesn't support anything more than 1080p than on a big monitor looks kind of bad.
