Apple? The company that has built its entire brand and product lines around "we know what's best for you and if you don't like the way we've done it, you're wrong"?

Yes. We expect the company that prides itself on having taste to avoid doing tasteless things.

We’ve all grown out of that cliche. Literally every OS is opinionated.

You’re not wrong but so far they’re one of the only major companies in their cohort that isn’t shoving AI down our throats/integrating it into literally everything and begging us to use it with some embarrassing corporate plea.

Opting out of Siri is incredibly easy and there are no major features i care about that decision locks me out of. I think it has some impacts on CarPlay but it’s never stopped me from being able to put on music for my kids or whatever.

Frankly I forget I’ve opted out all the time because they never bug me to start using it.
