Personally the thing that really ticks me off is that they "don't allow" you (aka will boot your app if they catch it) to flow content smoothly around the notch. The way it was presented to developers was super obnoxious and, honestly, I don't think anyone would care if their phone was half a centimeter taller. People didn't loathe the iphone back when it had a screen between two bars of utility space.

  From the HIG[1] > Don’t mask or call special attention to key display features. Don’t attempt to hide a device’s rounded corners, sensor housing, or indicator for accessing the Home screen by placing black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Don’t use visual adornments like brackets, bezels, shapes, or instructional text to call special attention to these areas, either. 1. https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/ios/visual-design/adaptivity-and-layout/ https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guideline...
