@nyconfusedtransf I usually am a bit skeptical of transferring. However, you have quite concisely summarized about half of the good reasons that my kids didn’t consider NYU. It is a good fit for some kids, but not for all and I think your reasons make sense.
As a freshman, you still have 3 1/2 years ahead of you. To me it makes sense given what you have said to at least consider transferring. You will want to put some careful thought into where you would transfer to since of course you would like to get a significantly better fit in your second school.
