Very much agree with the sentiment here - I actually even wrote a blog post about this specific issue lately. There's an entirely separate issue of AI slop ruining well-defined clean applications: https://frigade.com/blog/easier-to-build-not-easier-to-use
> Topping my list is support for SVG assets. NOPE. WTF?
From the Xcode 12 Beta Release Notes:
> Added support for Scalable Vector Graphic (SVG) image assets. These preserve their vector representation with deployment targets of macOS 10.15 or later, iOS 13 or later, and iPadOS 13 or later. (18389814)
> Android has had this how long? Apple's "@2x", "@3X" bitmaps were amateur-hour to begin with, but a decade later? No vector support?
PDF assets have been supported on all Apple platforms for many years.
The announcements today represent years of work by thousands of engineers and designers. It’s impossible to cover everything in a 2 hour keynote, let alone one geared towards the media/general public. Even the 2 hour “State of the Union” that’s geared towards developers barely scratches the surface, let alone a single webpage.
