Triumph of visual design over interactive design. These days, most “designers” only care about graphics visually. The much deeper science of how people use and understand things is beyond them. Worse, they think the problem is that everybody else does not “get” visual design.

Style over substance.

This means they didn't even make good design. Another example is KDE vs GNOME.

KDE: "We just did system we wanted."

GNOME: "No, you don't get it, this is design!"
