I'll take the bubble tea interface over the extreme flatness of every widget that dominates the UI these days where no cues are given as to what is just text, what's a button, an editable text input etc.

While liquid glass is perhaps mediocre and distracting, the current "everything is just a text label or a stick figure icon" paradigm is pure hell. I dread learning any new UI because of how bad most are.

Every time I spend significant time on my Mac with the Tahoe beta and then go back to an Android phone (with near Pixel UI) I experience genuine relief. Everything is just a simple color and a label, and I love that because it's so easy to descern. Tahoe legitimately makes me tired to look at sometimes. I vastly prefer clarity and flatness over decorations.
