> E.g., in Windows apps, menu items are keyboard-addressable by default. This is brilliant for accessibility, and for accustomed power users. MacOS has no _by default_ equivalent.

Cmd-Shift-? (really, Cmd-?)

You can begin using arrow keys from there, or start typing to search the menu items of the foreground app

You can also assign arbitrary hotkeys to any application's menu items in the OS system preferences

Yeah, I know about this; it’s not the same. In Windows apps following the standard (which all good ones do) _every menu item_ is keyboard addressable. Something several submenus in is trivially accessible by muscle memory: ALT-I-R-C to resize an image without constraints, e.g.

MacOS allows easy navigation of the menu, but does not guarantee that each item is hotkey-addressable.
