I agree on the reliability one.

I agree on the mag disconnect safety one.

I will add porting...don't like porting on any gun, especially one intended for "up close and personal" or low light work.

And I will add really long barrels (over 5 in an auto or over 4 or 5 in a revolver)...unneccessary for range at which a self-defense shooting would occur, and a lever or handle for someone to get a hold of to get your gun away from you in a struggle.

Also, adjustable sights I can take or leave but would just as soon leave. Not necessary for other than target shooting or long range hunting and just something else to break.

I am sure I will think or others, but that is all for now...
