The article is quite harmless compared to the silly title.
But the main argument is that Android has too many settings and options where users don’t even know what they are good for. And with further development it’s getting more features and more options.
That seems to be a very minor and rather luxury problem to have more and more features and options.
On the PC, there are lots of programs that already use a short list of options available and then a checkbox with ‘I’m an expert’ or ‘Advanced settings’ to show them all. More settings means more freedom for the user to chose from. Hiding them would be a simple task. But just because they exist and are shown, this doesn’t mean that anyone has to click on anything without even knowing what it does. So it’s not really a problem besides reading 3 more words in the list of settings but not doing anything with it.
For options I don’t know, I just use a web search in case I’m interested. Or I just ignore them as long as I don’t have a problem related to the topic.
