"Take a look at the Settings in ios7. It's nothing but a list of identical looking settings that go on for pages. Everything is nothing but text and thin lines."

Err, it's pretty much always been like this.

The basic layout has stayed the same, but the left-side list has grown quite a bit over the years, as has the number of settings on the right side.

The original layout may have been serviceable years ago, but now it leaves a lot to be desired.

The current split-pane interface works fine if you go in there to change multiple items on a regular basis, but that's not exactly how most people use the settings.
