The font point aside, which I do agree with, the rest of your comment sounds very subjective to me.
I too prefer more distinction between different UI elements than is fashionable in recent years - and, make no mistake, that’s all it is: fashion - and don’t see why higher resolutions preclude that. That’s not to say we have to ape what was done 10 or 15 years ago, but we can certainly take things in a more interesting and usable direction than we’ve chosen to do since around 2013.
I find myself clicking the wrong window by mistake a lot more frequently than I did back in the day due, I think, to current design trends.
