>I wish we could have a sane conversation about how UI's should be customizeable for the end user

Depends a lot on context and the type of application, but a lot of end users get confused about where the line is between UI/UX and backend functionality.

A lot of things that might seem to be UI issues might actually have implications for things like resource consumption and application stability. It's a tough balance to strike.

Oh yeah, Im not saying it's easy, just that it leads to better workflows and efficiencies for end-users.
