Does this screenshot of iOS 8 remind anyone else of Dolch?

Because Android?
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

Uh oh... What if Apple chiclet keyboards started to come in Dolch's colour scheme? Dolch wouldn't be cool any more ...
