iOS 7 is anything but flat. In fact, one of the core concepts is "depth". Layers and new navigation patterns emphasise this.

Flat has always been about ornamentation and not layers. Plenty of flat websites have layers. Modals. Pops outs. Sliding menus.

I don't know why people think flat is about not having layers. Did Apple just start this bizarre thinking?

You were doing great until the last sentence. Why is a lot of the criticism jumping to attack the corporate entity behind the design, instead of the design itself?
