Are you talking about the unveiling of Swift or SwiftUI? My recollection was that some people hated ObjC and wanted a more modern language. Apple gave them Swift. But I don’t recall people hating AppKit (maybe I wasn’t remembering correctly) and SwiftUI was basically Apple following the hipster trend.

Just referring to Swift.

Agree that SwiftUI was just jumping on a bandwagon and would say that the design of SwiftUI clearly strains the poor language design choices in Swift.
