> UIs that need to adapt to changing screen sizes, different needs, theming, and many more.

People keep saying that as if that is this new thing that wasn't ever heard of before the web or smartphones.

And yeah, "needs are different, and we need theming is this new thing that never existed before the iPhone ".
