You shouldn't need to read the source to configure the values how you want.

Helm's problem is that `values.yml` is basically the API and every helm chart provides its own (often incomplete) interface with poorly documented defaults. Some of those can spread over 3k+ lines and it's utterly overwhelming to figure out what to do with that.

When I see something like that, I just search in the templates directory for where the value is used.
