If you've only imagined it (IF I've only imagined it), you (I) haven't experienced it. When you desire to show your experience with actual examples, again I'm happy to examine them.
YOU asked for examples from ACR, and yeah, I have them and shared them.
I can understand why if you've spent money on the software you don't want it criticised, but once you've spent some time with it and hit it's limitations you'll end up having to regard it as money spent on hoping it will get better. Right now it's pretty poor.
