> At some point, being "modern" is a very important value.

Note that there's a difference on Linux where we kinda expect all our
apps to look different[*], but on Windows, "modern" is almost a
requirement because all the apps look the same - so a small variation
in appearance is instantly noticeable to someone who uses Windows all
day.  Thus, the importance of "modern" varies with context.


[*] Heck, I still use some Xaw and raw X11 applications...
