Default styling for controls does not work!

[mobynet1]

Description

By default, I mean that I have completely turned off styling by not loading the Styles.xaml and Colors.xaml in App.xaml. Supposedly with ALL styling left to the defaults of the controls, some defaults are being set that should not be. Case in point, where is the corner radius coming from in the flyout menu?

I had also opened an issue, There is no way to set the text color of a Switch control #8965, a long time ago and @jfversluis unilaterally closed the issue by telling me to go write some platform-specific code. This is truly a poor way to run things. When customers open issues, it is not acceptable to simply close them because MS doesn't want to do something. I have ranted MANY times that you guys thought that the xamarin rewrite would satisfy everyone, but you have screwed the desktop community completely. Why can't a Switch control be styled?

So, some controls have styling that cannot be overcome without a TON of work on the customer's behalf. We, the customers, are under tight enough deadlines as it is to make this stuff work without having to resort to billions of lines of platform-specific code to make things work. If that were the case, who needs MAUI??????? EVERYTHING WAS EASILY STYLABLE IN WPF!!!

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create new unmodified Maui app
2. Comment out the loading of Colors and Styles:

   <ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>
   <!--<ResourceDictionary Source="Resources/Styles/Colors.xaml" />
   <ResourceDictionary Source="Resources/Styles/Styles.xaml" />-->
   </ResourceDictionary.MergedDictionaries>

3. Set FlyoutBehavior="Flyout"
4. Run this VERY simple app...

I've been having various styling issues related to this as well

I think the corner radius is from the default OS styles. You can override this by creating your own style to override the OS default style in the Windows platform App.xaml file.

@mattleibow, no that is not the case. I know I can create my own style. The point of opening this is that there should only be minimal defaults for controls. The control was a frame and there should never be rounded corners as the default. That is sugar that should be added by the developer on.
