I think there's a degree of denial. I remember walking up to an engineer on the WinUI team at Build (can't remember if 2018 or 2019) and they were _shocked_ that I had complaints about UWP. They seemed to think it was a revelation. It was honestly offensive how out of touch she was. I think at least the PMs on that team do not understand the human suffering they cause by releasing such a bad product. Anyway, after a particularly awful project involving UWP and Forms UWP, I'm taking my vacation days and using them to learn Typescript, React, and Electron. Edit: if you find yourself working at Microsoft on the WinUI or UWP teams, quitting is an option. There are many good products that could use your skills and programmer labor is in high demand.
