Lack of Consistency betwee Admin Center Pages
Ahem, jcgonzalezmartin, that's *my* line :)
I would also add the "perpetual" preview status to that list, how long have we had the new SPO admin portal in preview? The SCC is also a mess, with multiple sections being reordered all the time and causing all sorts of issues. But yeah, long live devops, agile and all the other buzzwords that are just another way of saying "testing in production".

The consistency should be there and Microsoft has some work to do.
For example Security & Compliance Center which handle also EOP tasks and other above other services. His GUI is already broken in most parts. Will be nice, if this will be incorporated to Microsoft 365 Admin Center.
But there are also a nice examples, like Cloud App Security which now have more consistent experience with Security Center (WDATP). If I like to say, manage everything in Azure Portal will be fine for me. 😉

PetrVlkthat is a very good point, every blade in the new Azure Portal looks and works the same, it does not matter which service, they have all have the same behavior and UI widgets. It is obvious that everything in Azure comes from Microsoft. We don't see the same thing in the O365 services.
The new services like Flow and Teams have very different UI for their Admin pages and the new Teams/Skype admin center does not share much in common with the new SharePoint admin center.
Inconsistent terminology, edit columns vs customize columns, and varying UI, sliders vs checkboxes, demonstrates a complete lack of UX vision and implementation.
