1 & 4 go together very well.
The biggest mistake I have witnessed, is a person putting work into a design until they thought it was "perfect/finished/happy with it" & were ready to show off. They're going in expecting people to tell them how good their UX is, even if they won't admit it. As soon as someone struggles with it, you can see the original designer getting defensive or suggesting to the person testing to try it the way the designer intended. I think a tool like Microsoft Excel is a great thought process for UX. I'm not saying it's perfect. But you have a product with such a wide audience experience range. You want it to be simple enough to get started with no experience & think of yourself as proficient enough to throw on your resume. Yet you also want advanced users to be able to improve their productivity with slightly hidden UX. |

Today MS UX, UI whatever they call it, is a destitute, a failed embryo. Using it every day is an exercise in masochism. Try to resize a window element with 1px width on a UHD monitor. And i repeat myself: light gray on black ? Really want to learn something from MS: see win32 until win 2000 and office untill office 97. And waiting 1s for every cell in excell to advance is a ... problem, not a UX advance.
