When I boot into Windows and want to snip a portion of the screen I am going into a menu and opening a dedicated UI program (snipping tool). Then I manually save it to the desktop again through menus. Then I can access the snip. It's insanity compared to what I do on macOS.

CMD+SHIFT+5 also gives you clear options to "tap to do X" like you say.

Annotation directly yes, that is nice. And I know some people dislike the "floating screenshot in corner" feature of macOS, but if you allow it to start you get instant annotation right after taking a screenshot without having to open the IMO clunky preview app.

There are also other 3rd party tools for annotation for macOS that can pipe together flows, probably as advanced to what you mention.

Because you are literally comparing a dedicated tool to a built in implementation (which I kind of feel you have not explored all that well lately).
