I'm not sure that Apple has lost that focus? I too have noticed many more bugs in my day-to-day use, but I have always wondered if it's because my way of using the computer is slowly becoming "the way people used to use computers." The listed bugs involve the finder and networked drives - functionality used by a particular demographic of technically savvy users. It's not exactly that I'm trying to defend Apple - more that I am suspicious that what is happening is that Apple is still focusing on consumer experience, but I (we) are moving out of the "eye" of that experience. The generations younger than me interact with computers in very different ways than I did - and I think Apple's shift in focus reflects that. FWIW I still fine the "external display" story easier on macs than windows (despite, it seems, Apple's best efforts).
