there's a significant portion of software provided only via the App Store with no independent download from the vendor available. granted, you can get most stuff with direct download and macports/brew but there is stuff out there that forces you to sign in.

telemetry that's baked in along with the global Apple network that you're involuntarily part of (that's how random airtags/find-my-shit work) should be deal breakers for anyone.
