I can’t believe there’s only one image of Apple Maps in that article.

Every image is captioned with “See! Look how similar it is” but I have nothing to compare it to.

I’m not sure if it’s a law already but if not I’m claiming it in my name:

The more useful some graphics would be in an article, the less likely it is to contain any.

Oh yeah, that's Switch007's Law—the more useful some graphics would be in an article, the less likely it is to contain any.
I think the point is (despite the title) less that they're aping Apple's style, and more that the author believes the new style is generally worse than the old style.

On that point I personally agree, though it seems there's at least a few other people in the comments here who prefer the new style.
