Do you want to know why there are a lot of rounded rectangles on things in the physical world? They’re easier and nicer to handle from a tactile perspective. Rounded corners make perfect sense on tables, furniture, and even phones.
It's not like I’m going to cut myself on a virtual window for crying out loud.
I'm not a fan of rounded rectangles in apps/interfaces and sometimes it can even obscure issues: e.g. an image where there’s a visual artifact or problem with the corners.
