You're absolutely right, never made any sense. I'm not comfy calling out specific names, but the sort of luminary who would have been featured on Daring Fireball over the years proposed this and took umbrage to this being pointed out at the time. I can think of 2 off the top of my head who specifically did this, one who went on about it until they saw SwiftUI x macOS 1.0 and that became their new drum to beat on. (i.e. the quality was low)
