They have probably spent a lot of time and money paying UX guys trying to optimise for their unique situation. I would assume they reusing either in house or 3rd parry libraries in their code, but that stuff isn't where estimates go wrong. It's usually experimentation of trying to get UI right for the user. I mean could tell you how long it would take to make a html page, if you tell me what tags and elements you want in it. It's a whole different ball game, if you ask for a estimate of creating a complete feature because it will probably involve a little trial and error and feeback from multiple people. The first few stabs at it won't be quite right etc
