The funny thing is, the bottle on the right does a worse job than the bottle on the left.

Nice find! that said this is not an essay, it's just a quick reaction to something that bothers me

You had me until the Mac/PC comparison
Well, I couldn't find better example of status quo then the pre-iMac 1990's beige PC...

Apple's ad campaigns are getting more and more subtle it seems...

The ketchup bottle is the best description of UX here. It's about designing for the complete user experience. UX isn't just development.

People did not enjoyed trying to get Ketchup out of the bottle. The plastic bottle solved that problem thus improving the experience.

I HATE devs when they complain about users not knowing the simple 327 click workaround....
CleanItWithWub
Most devs don't even know the workaround because they never expect their shit to break.

Am dev, it's never my code that breaks, it's always someone else's.

So...what is UI and UX?

User Interface and User Experience
UI is part of UX. UX is the (good/bad) feeling you get of a product while using it. Did you find it easy to post a comment? that's UX
Oh and there's no UX without UI. UI is anything that help you use a product (door handle, buttons, etc)
