Let's be real: it's because it was in iOS 7, Apple never moved on from that look and feel, and Apple is Apple. (n.b. a winking opinion, and a mild homage to Apple lore, not a genuine rebuke: https://folklore.org/Round_Rects_Are_Everywhere.html)

Lots of sites these days are using that frosted glass effect, I recall seeing it on the Linear site recently.
