I shift down front and up at the back all the time so 😒

Yeah and to get the same or similar range on a 1x set up you'd need to use a wider range cassette on the back than you would if you were using 2x giving you bigger jumps, otherwise you'd loose out at either end, not that It matters all that much if you're not racing.

Bigger jumps between gears is bullshit. You’ve the same jumps between gears as if you had a double crank but only rode in the big ring. Nobody shifts down at the front and up 3 times at the back to get intermediate gears when changing up.
Wide range cassettes give you big jumps, not one chainring
