I mean your observations are correct, but I feel your reaction is sensationalism.
For hundreds of not thousands of years we've dealt with it. That's not just, coping because there isn't a better option, Humans are pretty capable when they're not lazy
I haven't played the campaign from either of the last 2 games and barely even bothered with regular multiplayer in MW2, mostly sticking to Warzone and DMZ instead.
I have no interest in MW3 at all

This might sound frustrating, and some players hates this system as they wanted time to read and make the right choice, but I think it fits this game perfectly as you're playing a Secret Agent where time is of the essence and the stakes are high, it really sets the tempo for the game.
You don't, a tar.gz is an archive format like zip or 7z
Technically it's two formats a tarball - all files combined into one file, tar - and then compressed into a gzip.
To uncompress and release the files run:
tar -xzf filename.tar.gz
