The problem with THAC0 vs AC debate is it's it's really a superficial change. Both do exactly the same thing after all. It's not like ascending AC actually opens up a whole new wealth of possibilities (or if it does there's not been a lot of effort to take advantage of them - it would be generally easier to include degrees of success with ascending AC - but I'm not aware of any efforts to do that).
I think whoever mentioned it's about User Interface is basically right. The two things just aren't different enough. If there's a change in tech it would be in an underlying unified mechanic.
