I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree.
Apple's Human Interface Guidelines published in 1984 set a standard (that MS Windows aped, just with a white-on-black cursor instead of black-on-white.). Market share was down to MS collusion with the alphabet agencies. Apple has now joined them. Apple Preview lost the Save As... function, IOS is a closed silo, no VPN for you in China, and on and on....
