The McLaren team orders thing doesn't bother me.Piastri was ahead at whatever critical point predetermined by McLaren, so the team honored its preferential treatment to get him his first win. Whether it was the smart thing to do with regards to the driver's championship or not is another matter. But with this move, the team has cemented the concept of team commitment, and if McLaren chooses to favor Lando in the championship hunt in the 2nd half of the season, they can expect Oscar to play the team game in return.
If I was a ticked off Lando, I would have either waited until the last lap to let Oscar by, or I would have let him by earlier and then aimed for fastest lap to prove a point (figuratively and literally).
