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.
