When 3D touch was introduced, I made a comment on HN that stated Apple failed to learn the "Menu" button lesson from Android (it was around that time that Android was dropping support for the menu button).
I'm not a UX specialist, but even I could connect the dots on how 3D touch was just the iOS version of the long-deprecated Android menu button: useful, but with non-existent discoverability. Additionally, apps would support it inconsistently, so most users wouldn't know the functionality exists at all, and of those that do know about it, sometimes the feature does nothing at all.
