If the arguments for moving to PWA are all about improving the developer experience then as an end-user why should I care.

It just screams PhoneGap/Cordova 2.0 which equally had the same story.

Overcoming competition and the installation funnel is more of a marketing/bizdev issue than development. Being able to navigate to a web page and be using "the thing" is also a better experience of installation for the end user.

But for the actual using of the app, we're in total agreement.
