How is "well-designed" defined in that case ? e.g. the oft-referenced paper that Apple apparently used to define their environment as primary mouse-driven ("keyboards users state that they take less time and measurably take more time than mouse users to achieve a given task with a keyboard" or something like that, don't remember the actual phrasing) has famously not been reproduced. In contrast the UI work that went into the win95 design seemed much more experimentally reliable.
