I find you're perspective quite baffling. It is interesting in that you like the standardization and lack of certain web design crimes and I should not be overly negative to the OP showing their work^1. But man, I truly cannot understand how anyone can see that slop design and feel anything positive. It makes me want to instinctively close the tab immediately as soon as I see it.

[1] It's mostly not their work and just generated though that's not as relevant. But still I think we should be polite when someone shows something that has the chance of having some significant amount of human effort in it.

Separating emotion from logic without one dominating the other is a skill. That's Simone Weil's attention. You need to look at the world with curiosity and openness in order to filter out and assimilate only what you wish. See past what is for what in can be. I'm not saying the project is good or if it's aesthetic, but the functionality works and without LLMs this would never have seen the light of day. All these problems you say are easily solvable with something like Stitch, Impeccable and a tad of good taste from the part of the author. But for a MVP or a PoC? That's really more than enough.
