That's definitely true, I don't know why they didn't put a "click here for more technical info!" next to each point. The things that really bother me are: 1. If I implement one of the new themes they're discussing on the linked page, it only works in 3.9% of Android phones on the market, so if I want my apps to look like Google's on older phones I'm left to implement my own version of the themes. This is the same thing that happened when they announced "Homepages with square buttons for activities are the new way you should do everything!" and didn't release source code for how to do it for years afterwards with the Google I/O app, so every app that tried it did it a different way. 2. How am I supposed to use the action bar if Google's own applications can't decide on how to use it?
