I think this really shows Game Freak needs more time to develop their games properly and the real bad guy might be Nintendo forcing them to release fast.
Every single design in finished DP is much better than the beta, including the UI. The beta was just a mediocre looking game meanwhile the finished thing turned out to be the best game of the series. Just think of what SwSh could have been if gave it more time and effort.
