Tre, If our primordial ancestors had stuck to the accepted design patterns then we would still be living as slime on rocks. Variation is a good thing, even if it breaks with standards. That's how evolution works. If people create apps that are somehow more intuitive to use, they will attract customers and the standards will change because, at the end of the day, customers are the tail that wags this dog. Of course, most pioneers get an arrow in the back but some find gold. We need to make allowances for the mavericks if we want to make progress.
