The lack of mouse acceleration in Windows is what make it feel, to me, clunky and slow. I know it’s a function of what you grew up with/are used to but it’s interesting to see. Personally I like being able to flick my mouse across the screen without having to pick up my mouse—enables faster work.

Windows has had built-in acceleration since Windows XP (maybe 2000?) - it's the "Enhance pointer precision" option in the (classic) Mouse control panel.
There's also an acceleration curve you can customize, but there's no built-in GUI editor, but the data's all in the HKCU\Control Panel\Mouse registry keys.
I've had my touchpad randomly stop working. Sometimes a restart fixed it, sometimes it required a deep dive into driver land. Something so basic that should just work.
