There are plenty of situations where cool is better than fast. Anything entertainment based, maybe even social media. It is hard to match the immersion and engagement of a 3d interface. Get someone hooked on 3d (e.g. FPS gaming) and there is no going back.

Correct! But then you're actually seeking out coolness or entertainment. Otherwise you just want to do the job and get on with it, in which case fast > cool.

Of course there will be exceptions, but generally the rule applies.
