They aren't really though. Aesthetically they are reasonably close but employ different conventions (e.g. the list/tree in win32 and the list in NT4 display the same kind of information but different ways, and with different icons).
Consistency is a pretty fundamental thing in interface design, and whether or not something "fits" aesthetically is only a small part of all this, which I think was OP's point.
- dm319 5y agoYes, they are different paradigms.
