how do screen shots represent 'guesswork'?

  User Interface is about user experience. You can't experience using a product with some photographs. Similarly, you can't pretend to be a judge of good design based on a couple of photographs. This guy was clearly just spouting an opinion based on nothing, and we shouldn't respond to such comments as if they deserve merit.

  Take a person who has never used iOS. Show her screenshots of the home screen and a few random Apple apps -- say, Find My Friends and Podcasts. Would you expect her to draw a reasonable conclusion of what it's like to use an iPhone and how the design works in practice? More likely, looking at screenshots would divert her attention to secondary things like the textures and illustrations used in the apps rather than the actual UI design.
