I could not agree more.
It is not a tea snob speaking. No. It took me about 20 years to agree with this statement. However/unfortunately?, it is true.

Cuppa #2.
Yorkshire Gold Tea.

Following Stitchawl's tip, double standard this time. I.e., 2tsps a bit heaped and 5min steeping time instead of 2 or 3.
A bit later, I am going to try it again but in a mug which is 450ml/15oz instead of my cup (300ml/10oz).

I have not tasted the new brew yet, but it looks so solid that a spoon could stand in it on its own
