"Creativity is bad for UI design"
Way to misdiagnose. It's wholly possible to have a UI that is both creative and easy to use.
Most of the bad UIs and UXs I've seen have been the result of a lack of critical thinking and/or user empathy.

When I was starting as a developer I got a lot of pushback on some of the creative things I did and ended up redirecting a lot of that energy to reliability concerns, including human factors issues (human errors cause bugs). At this point I take - and use - “clever” as an epithet.
