Disappointed about lounge chairs

The math doesn’t quite add up here. We were told these things were so difficult to create because of multitasking. Ok, fair enough. Sooooooooo how come they aren’t compatible? Multitasking is a core feature of the game, how can it be so easily discarded? This is the definition of poor work. These things do less than they did in Sims 2 and 3, and they didn’t even do much there. Hard to trust anything the studio says when they say one thing and then do a completely different thing.
