Inconsistency in the loader/spinner/dots component used throughout the unified console. The dots animation is used widely through the spoke clusters, but it is not a Patternfly component(This component was originally inhereted from CoreOS console). Spoke clusters also uses skeleton states on certain pages, which is a Patternfly component. Hub uses a mix of dots animation first for half a second, and then spinners and skeletons.

Currently there is a discussion with PF to update with clearer guidelines. According to the current PF guidelines, we should be using the large spinner if we cannot anticipate the data being loaded, and the skeleton state if we do know. Link to doc
