^^^^^^^^
I find this statement offensive to the intelligence of our users. It
basically disrepects some users' preferences by saying they aren't
"required" so it should be harder to set them.
No, it means that we don't show things that:
1) don't match use cases we're interested in
2) are work-arounds for particular use cases instead of properly designed fixes
3) are necessary for deployments, but not for individual users
If you think there are settings that are in gnome-tweak-tool should be available
in the main Settings panel, file a bug against gnome-control-center upstream,
and we'll consider it (if it hasn't already been).
We don't insult our users' intelligence, we just don't show settings that
only
benefit a very small minority of our users, especially when that very small minority
is part of the existing Fedora and GNOME users that already know about the
"TweakUI"
tools available.
