It's a shame that Apple discontinued 3D touch. That thing was so cool and workin...

I think they are talking about git force push, not 3D push, but yeah, I liked the concept of 3D Touch too

The issue was discoverability.

If your design language is “flat as we can make it” how can you visualise a third dimension? You have to already know which things are 3D touch ready.

I blame the software refresh of Apple after the 5-series UI language was removed. Minimal mechanical design with rich complex software is a beautiful contrast that strengthens how both feel.
