This is a curious response. I would have used the same reasoning as an argument against Electron (or similar unified development systems): they are not consistent with all of the other native apps that people use.

I don't know if your reasoning is that looking like a web app means it is consistent with those apps, or that the apps look the same across platforms, but neither of those arguments are compelling to me. I chose the platform I am on because I think the interface is a good one that makes me more productive.

And I have never found an Electron app (or web app in general) that is as high quality as good native apps (on any platform). There are just so many compromises, and I am not even considering resource usage here. Everything just feels a little slip-shod.

This comment reminded me of a Gruber blog post from a few years ago

Thank you for that well-written explanation of your concerns. Your frustrations are shared by many users in this thread, and I'll do my best to pass them forward to the rest of the dev team.
