This to me was the biggest strike against MAUI. Teams team recently decided to switch tech stacks to address poor desktop performance, and explicitly didn't pick MAUI.

It may be that MAUI wasn't mature enough yet at the time they started working on it.
Immature isn't the right word, MAUI is mostly a rebrand of Xamarin.Forms, which has been a thing for almost a decade now and already had some support for desktop before the MAUI effort. Rather, it's an irredeemable mess.
Refactored Xamarin.Forms with breaking changes.
And the performance is still crap. What does that say about MAUI?
Thanks for correcting me!
