I don't like to criticise anyone's efforts, but yeah and honestly they look like stage makeup on a corpse. The whole thing's just 'off'. It's like a bad illusion, almost like it's trying to con me! I know that's not very logical but that's the gut reaction I have whenever I try to use it. There's probably some psychology in there it'd be interesting to study.

The psychology is "it's not identical to what I'm familiar with." That's what kept me on Windows for years, getting past it just takes dealing with it for a bit while you get accustomed to it.

But I don't feel that when I use for example Pages, Apple's word processing app which has a different user interface to Word. That looks very different, but feels solid, authentic and high quality and I don't get the same feeling.
