 > If the app doesn't support custom meta boxes, what's the point of opting
 in a custom post type? then you are only ever providing support for post
 types that have the same UI as page and post, which means you maybe
 shouldn't be using custom post type in the first place.
 There are tons of cases where a CPT will have the exact same UI as posts /
 pages. Meta boxes are not the only reason to use a CPT.

 For example, I might run a site that does reviews and tutorials. Each of
 them would be there own CPT, even though they share an identical UI
 (default). Why should these CPTs be excluded from the app? Saying these
 should be a page/post isn't always valid either, especially as CPTs allow
 completely separate URL structures for each type.
