The reason is that they are very early in development. Look at some of the more mature apps and you'll see that actually most look quite nice and are very usable.

EVERYTHING is possible, i'm betting there's much more freedom to customize than in iphone or android, you can change the whole UI framework, like with QT, or ELF or what have you. You can add all kinds of custom effects and whiz bangs. Look at some of the proof of concepts posted in Maemo-Planet.
