I'm sure the amount of work that went into it must be huge (creating something like that from scratch is indeed a daunting task) but I wonder if this video really does them any service, your average human being is just going to see a crappy and laggy interface that will remind them of bootleg smartphones from 10 years ago.
On the technical side of things I wonder if the lag is due to the lack of hardware acceleration or if it's because of a very unoptimized early build. If it's the former it'll fix itself when they integrate the GPU, if it's the latter then it's slightly more worrying from a code quality perspective.
Beyond that the interface looks like pre-alpha status (most of the widgets look like placeholders, glitches everywhere etc...) and they want to ship that in 6 months? I hope that early PureOS adopters are ready for a very rough launch, this is going to be quite a ride...
