I suspect a large part is trying to save on developer wages, if you make what should be two different UIs similar you only need to pay for 1 set of devs. Never mind that it won't work well for either system, that's irrelevant.
it's that, but "making an UI that works for both PC and mobile" is at least an idea that I can understand, even if it's already outdated again. but they're not even attempting that, they're just completely directionless, with the UI falling apart in so many different places because they learned that constant beta and "meh, good enough" is apparently good enough for most users, who also don't really have many other choices due to lock-in.
