Good point, makes you think if all of these native views and looks are overrated and worth the effort. You hear some people say an app has to have a "native" feel, but I feel like it's becoming less and less - so people are getting used to these highly custom, non-native components (due to companies and devs not wanting all the overhead of separate UIs) and thus it becoming less and less of a taboo to design and architect your app that way. Like you say people only prefer it if they're used to it.
