Paul,
Boring, sterile, it ain't.
Don't confuse the very nice graphics (which hold up very well over the years) that are integrated with Univers. I agree that Univers supports the program well.
I'm not completely dismissing the typeface; but, as demonstrated, one has to be aware of the company it keeps. As I said... "By itself, Univers is just very cold and somewhat mechanical to my eyes."
