The perfect waterproof jacket doesn’t exist.
Ideally, I want a garment that is very light but tough, packs down small but fits perfectly, breathes superbly but doesn't let any water in, is aero and non-flappy in the summer but fits over multiple winter layers and doesn’t cost the earth. As no one seems to have invented a miracle jacket that fits all these criteria, I confess to owning, erm, more than one waterproof cycling jacket.
