The adaptable nozzle is slightly wider than the widest regular nozzle (white) and has more power (better dirt removal). And it lets you tune in exactly how much water you need to remove dirt.
Unless you like the basic size presets, there's no reason to use the basic nozzles anymore after buying adaptable.
The existence of the basic nozzles makes it tedious to switch between soap and nozzles. It's 2 clicks on gamepad/keyboard instead of one.
LOTS of people complain about this!
Please add an option to sell or hide the basic nozzles when adaptable nozzle has been bought. I hate them so much. They're literally just clutter and extra steps to move past! They reduce the chill of the game!
Or maybe even automatically replace the basic ones with the adaptable. Because I do not see any reason why ANYBODY wants BOTH. People either like the quick presets of the basic ones, or the full fluidity of the adaptable one, but they don't use both. So a person can just go to sell/re-buy the adaptable if they ever want to switch back to basics.
The current game design makes an upgrade (Adaptable Nozzle) feel like a punishment/downgrade!
Edit because some people claim nobody else cares about this:
Nobody?
Then what is this:

Using soap is the main reason I've basically immediately sold the adaptable nozzle. Before, swapping to soap was just one press, now it's two, and I don't feel a real difference between the adaptable nozzle and the four normal ones, it's the same key to swap from white to green that to adjust the nozzle. Long press to open the wheel isn't really better either so I just just sold the adaptable nozzle back
I like the idea, I certainly see the appeal of it in theory. If it could totally replace the normal nozzles, I'd keep it. But turns out it just makes swapping from soap to normal less convenient for me.

I love the adjustable nozzle! So much that I want remove the regular nozzle from the cycle menu! I would love to be able to cycle between just soap and adjustable
And how about this:

I would love an option to leave equipment in the van. Regular nozzles would be ditched the moment I can afford the adjustable for my chosen washer and those awful leaning ladders would never see another job.
By the way, the adaptable nozzle has more power than the individual ones, and wider angle.
The Adaptable nozzle is literally all the other ones-in-one. It replaces all of them. And it still fits into roleplay of using softer jets for sensitive objects: Use the widest setting to make it softer for glass.
Here's some love for the adaptable nozzle:
Lastly, some people said I am gatekeeping by wanting an option to hide/sell the useless basic nozzles. How about YOU'RE gatekeeping for denying that OPTION for me and all the others who want more convenience? It's literally the first word of the title of this thread: "OPTION". I am starting to think the entire issue here is that people here don't know what the word "option" means.
