"UX is less important" is probably the wrong way to describe it. "UX can be more trained" is closer to what I meant. In business applications (Photoshop, for example), some degree of tools training is assumed, so there's some allowance for unnatural feeling ways of doing input that can be learned, so you have a bit more room to fudge the design. Games and consumer software are somewhat less tolerant of the UX acclimatization issues.
