The other 10% is from people giving up unstyling buttons. If I remember correctly they need more than 10 lines of CSS to undo all kinds of weird specific CSS that <button> has. Maybe nowadays it can be done with `all: initial`

Not an excuse, but it can be frustrating.

Maybe that's an indication that unstyling a button is a really, really bad idea?

Why would it be a bad idea? Is styling your site a bad idea?

I just think that a form button is something that looks a specific way for a reason, and that styling shouldn't break fundamental expectations. But that's obviously a subjective opinion, people can style their pages however they like, I just don't personally like design that lies to me.
