I don’t like it when I download an app, only to find that it opens in a weird size because it hasn’t been updated in years. I’d rather not have that as an option to download ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Aside from the fact that it further restricts what it means to “buy” and app (it’s not just a license to use it for as long as apple deems it good looking enough) there’s the bigger issue of purpose.
I don’t download an app so that I have a nice looking UI. I download an app to DO something, to solve a problem. If the app does it in style (or in line with the newest ui fads) that’s nice. But it’s not why I’m looking for an app.
If my options are between a bad looking app and no app, then I’ll take the bad looking one 100% of the time.
The sheer arrogance of thinking you know what a person believes based on one comment. A store owner has every right to not sell broken products. It’s as simple as that.
