Clearly, the ideal of an 'all-screen' design — to use Apple's own words — has no notch at all. This is not that. But what I dislike more than the notch isn't the notch itself but that Apple is fully embracing the notch in software. I really wish their software design rendered the 'ears' with black backgrounds while using apps. I'd be fine with embracing the notch on the home screen and lock screen."] Daring Fireball 9/15
