> the user generally gets an experience that is similar to other native applications

This sounds like the goal you want to achieve using native as a tool.

But anyone who struggles to grasp non-native UI and UX is going to struggle to interact with the modern IT environment as there is no standard for web-apps.

If I order a cup of tea, you could argue that what I actually want is to achieve the goal of drinking something which has the taste, smell and general nutritional profile of tea.

Theoretically, there might exist a cup of coffee that achieves this goal. But I've never seen one, and if you serve me coffee it's almost certainly not going to achieve my goal.
