Tbh it kinda is, because the browser gives the end user more control, since you have extensions and access to the underlying html. You can get around most stupid UIs with little effort, but on desktop you're doomed

Desktop apps are easy to navigate, focus on the program via HWND and target whatever control is needed, then either get the data or set the data

Just like the web
