Amen.
Who cooks Tuna well done? Why not slap it on two pieces of rye and slather it with Mayo. WTF???? Tuna sear one side 30 seconds sear other side 30 seconds ... serve.

I'll eat a really thin piece of steak, flank and skirt specifically, medium well because the flavor usually comes from them being marinated or stuffed and medium-well for hamburgers also. For a regular cut of meat like a t-bone, I'll usually go medium, but when if I'm going to be eating a delicious and expensive cut, then medium-rare for sure. Medium-rare prime rib is the most delicious thing in existence, btw.
I had a cheeseburger at T.G.I. Fridays today. I ordered it well done and it was .
Yeah but if you had ordered it correctly, it would have been even more delicious due to actually tasting the beef.

Anything past medium rare is pointless. You might as well have ordered hotdogs.
Not even slightly. I had my first rare steak at The Brown Derby and have never looked back since. It's more tender, more flavourful (blood taste? Where the fuck did you hear there was a bloody taste?) and easier to savor. I understand if you're a bit finicky and go medium-rare but anything above that is just bad eating.
Alton Brown wouldn't approve.
Hamburgers and steaks are two entirely different cooking practices. Hamburger meat needs to be cooked properly, and the flavour comes from the fat content in the meat. While the marbelling in steak does attribute to its overall flavour, it doesn't take precedence over a hot grill and controlling the juices by letting it rest after you've cooked it.
You can overcook a hamburger and it can still be enjoyable with cheese, ketchup and mustard. The same can't be done with a steak.
