It's not so odd when what you hate is exactly the lack of customizability.

The windows UI being boring doesn't necessarily have to be caused by a lack of customizability. The windows UI is just a boring UI design even if you make it more customizable. Makes it better, but doesn't fix the problem IMO.

Yes, but it has some "quirks" that for somebody are a waste of time. Sometimes better and usable is enough.

For example I profoundly hate the start menu's suggested apps default window. I just want it to list all apps when I click it. And on win 11 this is not customizable.

Everyone has his use case.

The registry for that can be disabled. Not that it makes Windows much better

Yes but the updates tend to reset it.
