The problem is a lack of emphasis. Apple routinely completely ignores basic features and UXD in their apps, for years. If you don’t want to use an app in the exact rigid structure they want you to, you’re gonna have a bad time.
That’s why I only use a handful of Apple apps — the apps that have no possibility of vendor lock-in, and can be instantly replaced on any other OS (e.g. calculator — which also fuckin sucks for anything beyond basic arithmetic).
