Other than launch day, I don't know what sort of inconveniences you are talking about. I come home, click play game, and kill stuff for a while.
You mentioned "mountains of bullshit", "a lot of inconvenience", "a lot of crap" which I just don't see and virtually every one of my gaming friends is playing this game and no one is having any issues. Maybe some specifics would help, I dunno.
You don't play much (or you don't play at varied times) if launch day is the the only time you've had issues. Also, I'm guessing you and none of your friends play hardcore, there was that massive blizzard caused lag spike the other day that basically perma killed everyone playing hardcore at the time.
Not only that, they've had issues with the game being down for maintenance for nearly a whole day, and thats after launch. That prevents me from playing "single player" which isn't fun. Today they just announced a 3 hour down time for the game. If its anything like past announcements it will end up being 5 or 8 hours.
Also, the commodities part of AH was down for a couple weeks, which hinders things like getting good gems for socketed gear. I've seen other issues too (and not on launch day), and I don't have nearly as much time in the game as some people. The full game functionality hasn't been enabled (and I won't count the RMAH since they announced before game's release it wouldn't be enabled for a while) for probably 50% of the game's life. A 50% full functionality uptime is pretty horrible.
