I think it was the Einheitswagen that I liked. The IC2000 seems pretty spacious compared to the DB's RB trains, though maybe I'm not comparing apples to apples
On time trains by terminating each side in Konstanz or Milano are an easy way to satisfy Switzerland, but as a passenger it just means missed reservations on an earlier train.
I am writing this while currently sitting in a DB train that hasn't moved in 1 hour and 35 minutes due to another DB train having broken down on the rails.
Earlier this week, I was in the train that broke down. That delayed me 2 hours and 45 minutes.
The weekend before that I took 5x DB trains, where each and every one of them got delayed by 25-35 minutes.
I am now at a point where in the future I will only fly direct to destinations inside Germany.

No random stairs or narrow corridors, no garish yellow or red colours, no speakers or beeping doors yelling at top volume.
Although the LED lighting in the newer IC2000 is too cold for my liking.
Time changes, uh?
