This has NOTHING to do with egos.

If an app is poorly designed and forces you to go through non-intuitive hoops to do simple things, you'd soon get frustrated with it. And the more difficult it is to use, the more effort the author has to expend in supporting it, which reduces the time available for further R&D, which is definitely a bad thing.

Style is one thing, but a good design is critical. You generally don't notice good information design and usability until it ISN'T there.
