Yes, absent the inclusion of a balance shaft to damper those vibrations an I4 will exhibit your complaints, especially at idle. But Ford is too cheap for that.

Willard, I respect your knowledge, despite your anti-Ford bias. But I have an 08 Escape with the 4-pot, and it doesn't vibrate at idle. It's rough, it's noisy, it's annoying, and I much prefer the 6, but it doesn't vibrate.

For some folks "rough" might equate to "vibration".

At this moment I can't think of any marque for which I am not "anti-" in some respect.

Good time of the year for some resolutions.
