"to varying degrees"
Very much agree with this.
I kind of crave some kind of configurable advanced workflow around calendar categorization, membership, visibility, etc. For example, I want to accept a prompt to create a calendar event from a doctor's office reminder, and I want that shared with certain personal contacts (my spouse) but I want it to show up as "busy" in my work calendar--without my work calendar service knowing the details. I want to be prompted to provide a travel time buffer around it so I don't get scheduled for a meeting before and after my event; when the time comes, I want to be notified about the personal calendar entry but not by the work calendar.
This is one example but I feel like these calendar-juggling operations are actually pretty common use-cases these days, besides integrating between iCloud/Gcal calendar users and "arbitrary calendars" like Yahoo or some other calendar thing. Co-parenting with an ex-spouse brought up a whole bunch of other "sync to some degree but not naïvely" use-cases, too. And there's professional use-cases where I'm setting up job search interviews and need to block time on my work calendar(s) but not reveal details.
