That's a worst case. Most of the time I don't touch anything.

Add to that, there were some weird inconsistencies because for a long time there were both GTK2 and GTK3 programs running at the same time and they didn't look quite normal.

I think that is the big issue with environments that allow for endless customization. People look for perfection, and when you have too much free time it's tempting.
