Personal computing failed because desktop operating systems started trying to work for mobile.

Everything that is bad in UI is a direct consequence of that.

1. No tooltips, right click, middle click behavior because touch doesn't have that. No ctrl+click either.

2. Large click areas wasting screen space with padding and margins.

3. Low density UI so it can shape-shift into mobile version.

4. Why type on a phone when you can talk? Make everything a search box.

5. Everything must be flat instead of skeumorphic because it's easier to resize for other screen sizes.

6. Everything needs a swipe animation and views instead of dialogs because smartphones can't have windows.
