I agree their vehicles are much improved in looks, feel, interior quality, touch points and handling. The two big issues with Lincoln is their very high failure rates and repeat repairs of the multiplexed electronic systems. It's just maddening for the owners of these cars. That in turn, makes their resale value very low. They lose 50% of their initial value in 3 years. A very good friend recently traded a really stripped down 2019 base model Honda Civic even up for a 2018 Lincoln MKZ 3.0L twin turbo Ecoboost. It had 30K more miles on it than the Civic but the Lincoln was a beautiful car and over 400 HP. But it does have a few annoying intermittent glitches.
