Completely agree on both counts, though I can't speak to 6th edition.
Some of the community likes a Blades in the Dark conversion for Shadowrun, though.

One of my players feels this way too, and has a semi-charismatic character. He'll describe what he's trying to do, we roll for how well it landed, and we quickly work out the highlights of what happened.
I haven't played a lot of other RPGs, but GURPS is one of my faves - I didn't realize the turns went quickly compared to other systems!
Shadowrun can drag though - I felt guilty as a rigger unleashing my drones, didn't realize when I set them up I'd be monopolizing combat time the way I did...
