I wrote something in outlook 2013 for windows and went "holy gently caress who thought a sliding inset caret was a good idea?" you see that poo poo in movies but that doesn't mean it actually makes sense in practice

also why is the entire UI IN CAPS like "UPDATING FOLDER Inbox"

Because they flattened the poo poo out of the ui so the only way to differentiate a tab or whatever from other poo poo is to capitalize it. It looks like rear end
