I freaked out in the beginning because I thought the crummy icons were representative of Apple screwing up the entire new design direction for iOS. But now that I’ve seen the rest of iOS, I’m not that worried.
After a couple days with the beta, it's pretty obvious that Apple didn't, like, FIRE their UI designers or anything. There are a few strange choices, but most of the new OS feels like an improvement when you use it.
