I find this list weird. I guess I’m the kind of person you’re complaining about!
I like having GUI available for standard stuff (eg. dconf editor is great for various desktop settings). And I like file extensions in many cases - eg. I like to be able to tell the difference between a .png and .jpeg just by reading the file name. … And Linux often really does give better performance on older machines compared to Windows.
… So I suppose in your eyes I’m basically an old Windows admin brining bad habits to Linux. I’m just not seeing the downside of these ‘bad habits’.

Yeah. Now I get the best of both worlds. First time I need a setting, I do a nice search, instant result, and click toggle.
If I love that setting, as a power user, I can script the change to every future computer I use.
If not, I search settings, instant result, toggle back.
Gnome is amazing lately.
