New Microsoft Store app icon. Holy hell!

What on earth are they thinking? It's so ugly and retrograde I took it out of my taskbar. The last one was totally fine and they've gone and stuffed it up completely. Please change it back Microsoft.

At least it stands out?

In what way? Why single out a single app and make it look like **** when they already have a good looking set of app icons that suit the whole design of Win 10?

Well because now I think they are integrating the online Microsoft store in this app. So you can buy the hardware from the app as well.

Seems like odd logic. Why would making the thing look so fuggly encourage use to buy hardware? Ahh, of course. Consumers = bad. I forgot the Nadella mantra.
