I agree. A friend of mine, very much a tech fan, took a Polestar 2 over a few days for an extended test and thought the AAOS multimedia system in it was the best he'd ever used. Sounds like the EX90 and 30 are more advanced too (and buttonless in the case of the latter), if not the same as Polestar's.

Seems this implementation of AAOS in the has tried to recreate the old Sensus system, to try to appeal to us old fashioned luddites

Interestingly, my wife hates Sensus and when I said I'd purchased a new V60 with the new system she said "as long as it hasn't got all that flick left, flick right, drag down rubbish on it". She far prefers the system in her car which has menu icons across the bottom you just jab at and then a clear screen that appears for whichever section you're adjusting.

I'm more interested in the features rather than how you access them, however Sensus as on my 2019 car staggers me that it passed the most basic safety considerations, it's simply too complex for use on the move until you're very familiar with it.

No worries. I think Volvo has taken quite a few steps back from “being premium” recently.
