It is absolutely the case that Apple continually refines its user
interfaces. Anyone claiming otherwise is either purposely lying or
ignorant.

A simple web search shows lots of examples of Apple going back on user
interface design decisions. One bright and shining example is how the
Address Book application looked like a physical address book, and now
no longer looks that way. You're lying, and doing a horrible job at it.

Either don't know the correct definition of "refined", or you're lying
in an attempt to make a point. Either way, you lose; try again.

Lucky for us, your silly manufactured "problems" really don't matter
much in the grand scheme of things. Keep trolling if it helps you sleep
at night, though, trollboi.
