I agree that M-x customize is not horrible at what it does.

On reflection, what inspired me to chime in on this thread is amazement that there exists at least one person who is enthusiastic about the fact that Emacs has thousands of customizable settings. (M-x customize exists solely to make persistent and ephemeral changes to those settings.)

At least two. The vast range of customizable settings is one of the main selling points of emacs for me, and I find M-x customize a very pleasant way to discover and tweak them

Anyway brb, I'm off to customize how EXWM assigns workspaces to monitors when I plug my laptop into the docking station.
