I personally hate rounded corners and shadows added everywhere. Makes most things look crappy and smudged.

That does sound bad, but a grocery store's wifi? Why would one be using that?

Because if you're like me, I can use my phone in a nuclear fallout shelter or at Point Nemo in the Pacific and still have 2 bars of 5G, but the moment I step into the Home Depot or Kroger by my house, my phone barely manages a single bar of non-data service. If I need to make a call or look something up in the store, I have to use the in-store Wi-Fi.

Ah. Makes sense. I've only ever experienced that in one store, but I get it now.
