They're getting rid on the ribbon in Explorer, you can launch it with an in-beta modern UI since last month's Windows update. They'll probably complete it and make it official in the next big one.

For the curious: create a new shortcut with the following target:

  explorer shell:AppsFolder\c5e2524a-ea46-4f67-841f-6a9465d9d515_cw5n1h2txyewy!App

I think it is pretty "meh"

Well yes, I do too: it's massively incomplete.
