Hi BlackBird,

Well it's in an area that I find particularly irritating - I don't like it when I see poorly designed UX being praised. And especially when it is being marketed as good UX.

Cultivating it is part art and part science and is ephemeral in many ways. It can be lost simply by adding in too many features.

When it is present it's easy to undervalue or not recognize at all because it doesn't draw attention to itself.

So imagine if this is an area that you have concentrated on honing continuously for 20 years of craftsmanship and then someone comes in completely oblivious to it and thinks that it's all about the icons...
