I agree they are, but this is framed in the context of the parent post which implied that experience improvements aren't really features that count. And of course you're right, the reason almost no one builds polished experiences anymore is that, in most cases, it's not economical. Some developers (e.g. Things, Fantastical, Telegram, etc) make it work, but unfortunately it's very rare. I wish incentives were aligned differently, but I know they're not and I don't have a scalable solution; just have to hope enough developers decide to position themselves as the app with a good experience and make it work.
