Oh, come on! That dogma went out the window years ago!
I'm afraid I don't know anything about dogma, but I do know what has
shipped with the Apple computers I've gotten over the years. My
mouse was a Christmas present from one of my kids, who knew it would
be useful to me, as is my add-on full Apple keyboard for home use,
another present.
So complaining
about what right-clicks do or do not do isn't very useful either.
The single button mouse has a command that is equivalent to the right
click. I seem to recall it's some form of slow click, but I could be
misremembering.
Control + click. Especially useful on trackpad laptops. Just for
the record, I really hated the trackpad when I got my first laptop,
but now I'm very comfortable with it. One gets used to anything with
practice.
