Most UI designers have no concept of how damaging seemingly minor changes can be. In addition to the problems they cause for users with cognitive impairments, they also play havoc with the carefully tuned visual accessibility tools relied on by low-vision users like me. It's disheartening to load up a familiar app and find that it's suddenly unusable because an update introduced what probably seemed to the designer to be purely aesthetic changes.
