True. Buy my training is in military, process control, and nuclear. In those context, I've never heard a project manager say "make it look like a game". Whereas in business apps, I have heard that many times.

And that is a good thing, some applications, explicitly not apps, have to be made to work and function properly. Not to look good or fancy.

Just wait until someone proposes to build a blinky-clicky UI on top of the serious stuff to make it easier for users. No joke, I have that problem at work right now...

when the ui doesn't evolve with the user base, everyone in hawaii gets texted a nuclear emergency alert

If the UI takes precedence over funtionality you don't pass financial audits.

Or not to think about using Palantir to build a UI over an ERP-system because certain people refuse to work directly in the ERP.
