That's fair, but what I was responding to was: > One major difference in usability is that the search field has the focus on launch in System Preferences but not in System Settings. It literally says that not having the search field with focus on launch is a major difference in usability. I still don't think it is, since it's a single 2-key chord away. I have already agreed that otherwise it's much worse, I just don't see this particular feature loss on its own as a major one.
