Maybe this is a pet peeve but it's a vpn tool that forces you to log in with an "identity provider". Yeah, no thanks.

You're missing the forest for the trees, but ok.
Again, the most common problem in those cases are crappy drivers/fan curves. I have a laptop with W11 on it and fix/maintain laptops for friends as well and this is not an issue with any of them. The only time I had this problem was with a specific laptop.
Honestly, of all of the things you could criticize about windows (and there are lots), this is the one thing that is simply not an inherent OS problem.
Exactly this. I used to have an HP Omen 15 laptop with a 10th gen H variant i7 cpu that would constantly make a noticeable fan noise and would ramp up and down for no reason but the problem was the laptop. Everyone complained about it. The current one is an Omen 16 and it doesn't have that problem at all. Even when gaming.
I don't get why people exaggerate this much. I have a laptop with a 7840hs and 32gb of ram so it's also "overpowered" but it's whisper quiet and consumes 30-45w while doing simple tasks. Consumption only increases if I'm running code, playing games, etc which makes total sense.
Windows is not a well optimized os and the telemetry sucks but you're just flat out lying with your claims. It's either that or your laptop has the worst possible cooling.
In what sense? I haven't seen that one.
They didn't even correct it this time, so I'm not keeping my hopes up.

You're missing the forest for the trees. It's one thing to have your phone stole but it's another completely and unrelated thing to have someone force you to do something on your phone at gunpoint.
How the hell is any type of security system ever going to be able to help you in the scenario you described?
In case you don't know what your type of comment is called, it's "moving the goalpost".
There's a significant difference between your phone being stolen and this random scenario you just made up.

There are tons and tons of websites where you can create an account with just your email. I wouldn't expect a third party account to be mandatory. Specially from a product like this one.
