I guess my point is that the platform should be suitable for almost

It's supposed to be suitable for the average user. This tends to exclude people working in various restricted settings (such as small hosted containers, or servers where the UI libraries the Platform offers are not available and not useful) and developers working at the bleeding edge, etc. "Almost everyone" is almost impossible.
