&gt; They were talking about results - so I&#x27;d argue UX&#x2F;UI was an irrelevant issue.<p>What I said was an alternate front-end to a service can be behind in <i>any</i> way, and even (as a side note) ahead in UX&#x2F;UI (its less likely to be ahead in other ways, unless a service has useful features in its back end that aren&#x27;t accessible through the primary front-end.)
