True, Apple has a big advantage by having a sense for the baseline-level of computing power on client devices, which is pretty high across the board.
The uniformity of UX is worth the glacial rate, IMO. The more ScrollViews with arbitrarily laid out content (Photos seems to have these increasingly), the less intuitive I find apps. In Photos, I find it hard to get a sense for what menu-depth I'm at. Apple has a very logical master-detail layout across most apps, and I hope with Mac Catalyst that Apple continues to enforce consistent UI practices.
The more freedom developers are given to put any old layout, the more apps start feeling the way Windows Forms, WPF, and UWP feels on Windows; it's like you have to start thinking about "Okay, when was this app designed?" to figure out how to use it.
