Some (most?) people have no eye for design and simply don't notice stuff like that.

Until recently Firefox's URL bar had a THICK blue glow when it was in focus, instead of the more subtle one the rest of Mac OS has. It infuriated me. They didn't fix it for years. Why? Because nobody noticed it or cared enough, I guess.

"They didn't fix it" implies someone reported it as a bug. Even if no one did, if you were infuriated by it, surely you did, right?

It’s an art to craft a bug report convincing enough to address the issue.
