Wow, some people have really thin skin. “I disagree about HI design so you’re blocked now, but only after I have the last word.”

Specifically, I said this:

> And Apple’s internal mockup tools. They let designers obsess over the look of an application when they should be drawing from a standard set of units in order to implement a way of working. If someone wants a button to look completely unique rather than the standard UI style, they’re wrong, and they should feel bad.

And a certain popular designer evidently couldn’t handle this.

To be more blunt: If you have to go beyond what Interface Builder offers for solely aesthetic reasons (aka “braaand”), you need to rethink the choices that led to that point. The fact that things like the web and SwiftUI provide infinite “styling” is a flaw, not a feature.
