I'm pretty sure the issue isn't Rust but the fact outside Browser UI, every native UI sucks.
And the biggest culprit is Apple by far, followed by Microsoft, followed by Linux lack of consistency.

We had Delphi and VB thirty years ago and the native UIs were pretty good. The web brought a massive regression in UI programming, functionality and usability that we generally haven't recovered from yet. Not every app can be a web site.
Sure. It was a simpler time.
Web didn't make massive regression in UI, it made minimum feature set huge.
So simple that layout managers were already a thing, even if Electron kiddies have no idea about them in native UIs.
By the 2000's doing pixel perfect native UI was a sign of being lazy to learn UI best practices.
