I agree with a lot of that. But, it's a lot easier to get someone to try your web app than install a native app. It's also easier to get the IT department to allow an enterprise web app than install a native app. Web apps do have some advantages over native apps.

Yes, all of that is the reason why we procrastinate. "Easy" is the excuse we give ourselves to do the things we would otherwise have no justification for, and avoid the difficult things we know would be better. It's not my fault; it's not my responsibility; I shouldn't have to do extra work; it's too complicated; it'll be hard; it'll be long; it'll be painful; it's not perfect; it might fail. No worries; there's something easier I can do.

Thus we see the flaws in the world, and shrug. When someone else does this, we get angry, and indignant. How dare someone leave things like this! Yet when we do it, we don't make a peep.
