Why Aren't Web UIs Allowed for Interns?

I went through multiple different projects trying to find something that was both interesting enough, didn't require a lot of context, and wasn't super urgent. It definitely gave me a lot of respect for the people who picked my intern project. There's this funny bias that I think people come in with where they think UI work is somehow low class and not interesting. But I think web UIs are actually super interesting. They don't always say it because people are nice, but people are often disappointed when they're asked to work on this part of the infrastructure.
