> At least Microsoft haven't fallen so low as to fail basic design principles like having transparent on top of transparent buttons

That's just because Microsoft has been there done that already 2 decades ago ;) (IIRC in Windows Vista).

Same with the fine-grained in-your-face permission popups. Introduced by Microsoft in Vista, copied by Apple in Mojave ;)

One more reason for Apple to actually have delivered it properly, given that they had Microsoft's failures to learn from.

    Not really, Apple permission prompts aren't different enough. It's just a random prompt to put in your password, with limited information why.

    The Windows ones look very different, dim the rest of the screen, and have more info.
