I regularly use a 10.4 Tiger machine for music and graphic projects and it is a breath of fresh air compared to where MacOS is today. My daily drivers are Mavericks/Mojave/Mojave but recently got an M1 iMac with Monterey. Nothing about Mojave-->Monterey feels like an improvement.
Aside from high-DPI, I'd be pressed to think of a single Mac interface convention or element that is better today than 2005. Many are a lot worse.
