The pendulum swings are not the problem. They have been around forever. The problem, on Windows at least, is that they no longer take the time to finish their work, they don’t give developers standard frameworks to gracefully upgrade automatically to new schemes, and they change their minds so often with little warning to developers that devs don’t have time or patience to keep up. The difference with Apple is that they finish their work, and the pace of change is much slower.
