> whatever looks like Apple.

and IMHO apple's design went south post-jobs with ios 7.

The main problems that I didn't like:

- the flat look meant buttons didn't look like buttons anymore. This means that you didn't know what is actionable on the screen

- hiding stuff offscreen. This hiding of complexity also hides common uncomplicated actions and requires extra swiping and fiddling for routine actions.

regardless of the merits of apple design, believing the discipline of design is merely converging towards it is a pretty impoverished view of the field.
