Some really excellent points, here. I think reading the old HIG documents should be mandatory in UI design, and departure from it should require serious justification. One small nitpick: the ellipsis reuse in item #8 - that’s actually valid and would have been back in the 1990s as well. A menu item that is followed by an ellipsis indicates that selecting that menu option will open a dialog box. Inconsistently applied, but that’s always been the meaning.
