It has one feature I wish everyone else would copy: Miller columns. But even after NeXT used them 35+ years ago, they have remarkably little penetration into other OSes.

I use Pathfinder on MacOS, and it's generally a lot better than finder, but there are features I wish would carry over from other OSes. Windows file check boxes are incredibly useful

Miller columns is the biggest waste of screen space that's possible in an OS, and MacOS chose it for Finder. And Apple has been dying on that hill for decades. It's one of the main reasons Finder is awful and Apple's design choices are a joke.
