TIL: Germany has less than 45m inhabitants. Less than Spain! /s

And even if such an insignificant technicality could pop up from time to time, there is no actual debate on what is "better", when the counterpoint is literally this:

Of course, it might not be something you want to overload beginner programmers with.

    Le genere humain ne sera heureux et libre que quand on aura étranglé le dernier roi avec les boyaux du dernier prêtre.

    Man will be happy and free only when the last king has been strangled with the entrails of the last priest.

    L'univers m'embarrasse, et je ne puis songer - Que cette horloge existe et n'ait point d'horloger

   The universe baffles me, and I cannot conceive - That this clock exists, yet has no clockmaker.

Are these devices so different that none of the testing and development work is transferable to the newer devices?

And, reversing the question, if one was to be the owner of a such a Xiaomi device, what can be done to help them being supported?

Every piece of "advice" and patronizing questioning, such as "You did that, right? Right?", is a self-reflection by the author on things she should have done but didn't do, and learned that the hard way. It is not meant to be a patronizing statement to the the reader, but it is rather self-depreciation.

Although I understand the sentiment, and agree with the general idea, I must say that living in the mountains, I have encountered snow conditions on uncleared roads where I did not manage to get home due to the icy/slushy/snow depth mixtures encountered on relatively steep sections. I would probably have made it home with chains if I had them, and had bothered to put the on.

1) The Michelin is 120 euro tire, vs the 60 euro Barum

2) The test page says nothing about the test conditions in which the tires were tested.

3) The Michelin tire test explicitly states:

     The testers explicitly recommended against standardizing cars with all-season tyres in Sweden, suggesting that drivers would be better served by dedicated summer tyres paired with proper winter tyres when the season changes, rather than this compromise solution that fell well short of true summer tyre performance.
