I appreciate that, but most people don't know how they want to experience it. E.g. people will say they want to see everything in their feed, but if they do get everything, they complain about how much crap there is

The assumption being that this is not how people want to experience it?

If there's so much crap, maybe I want to be able to complain about it.

People might act on the tsunami of crap in manners that may not be profitable for Facebook.

The solution to undesirable, stupid, homeless, uneducated, etc etc isn't to hide it from your vision.
