This is true. Also, over time, well-usable but not exactly the best looking can become the "standard" for good-looking after a while because the design becomes so ubiquitous. You could easily make a beautiful or good looking suite of airplane controls (call it a "rebrand"), but most pilots would probably call it disgusting because it violates the common standards and aesthetics that they rely on.
