So, appliances get even harder to understand settings, that are actually illogical, instead of just having hidden logic? That's not a clear win.

No, there’s an underlying logic and underlying settings that are still accessible.

But transparently wrapped around that there’s a “good Clippy” who can teach, interpret, and orchestrate those settings with a CUI (conversational UI, pronounced “koo-ee”).

Oh, a settings assistant is much easier to get right.

It is just completely against the modernly accepted "best practices" for devices and interface development. So I don't see how we can get it. But yeah, it could be good.
