It also depends on what parent's needs are though. Maybe they are in a situation where being able to install a PCIE card is necessary.

Some things in Mac OS leave a lot to be desired IME, e.g. windows tiling (can be solved by installing something like Rectangle but really it should be part of the OS) https://rectangleapp.com/ https://rectangleapp.com/
