You overlook that not giving the user options to configure their systems is bad practice as it can force all manner of dark patterns on them, and they are left constrained in that software, unable to bend it to their will. Let them tweak, I say!

Let them tweak, yes, but they shouldn't have to tweak just to get things to work as expected.
If you think tinkering and configuring are fun you should stay as far away as possible from software design, because you have no insight into what most users expect from tech.
