Why? I'm amazed people expect a light and airy, responsive, material designed enterprise control panel that is redesigned yearly. These are backend tools. The UI works and was (1) not meant to be sexy and (2) not meant to push sales.

AWS is in a race to the bottom, cutting prices all the time. Hiring 50 UX devs to rewrite their web interfaces doesn't comport with Jeff's lean vision.

You can both be pretty AND powerful. It is hard to do, but it can happen.

Looks like you are confusing UI designers with bullshit designers, who make such things "material design". It's not a beauty contest.
