What a weird claim. If the new apps aren’t doing anything more, then just use the old apps.

Except you’ll quickly find that the old apps are quite simple and limited relative to what we have today.

I think the point is that they are not doing much more relative to the hardware improvements. How much less functional was windows 3.1 notepad compared to win10 notepad? 50% (utf8, maybe multiple windows)? RAM and CPU have increased 25000%. That should be way more than enough to handle the extra features in notepad.
