Adobe Illustrator, why can't you get it together like CorelDRAW?

I learned vector drawing with CorelDRAW many years ago. Over that time
I have tried to switch to Illustrator—arguably the industry-standard
vector drawing program—but even though it is the latest and greatest,
I feel it still is missing some very logical functionality that has been a part
of CorelDRAW for years. Photoshop is amazing.
C'mon Adobe, get it together with Illustrator!
