On 'are more important than', I disagree. Design is part of information presentation structure, and that is important on a par with content and functionality. A poor UI makes things harder to use and possible less comfortable to use. An overly artsy vaporhead UI is torture, too.

On the other hand, a functionality that stinks, like many Android UIs, is a royal PITA. So, balance, and having both aspects be of good quality is the key. And there are so many websites that fail on either or both aspects.

Make UIs Great Again! MUGA er, never mind.
