Fucking stupid UI/UX choices.
Fortigate Firewall/Routers - All options for BGP/IPSEC are behind an "advanced options" user preference.... IT'S A FORTIFUCKINGROUTER the only people in this interface are advanced users.
PaloAlto XDR portal - *Right-click for options on a line... fine... But wait, if you hold option/alt, you get even more options. I get the need to define which options are less common choices, but you should not be hiding things behind click-modifiers. The only people using the XDR interface will be advanced users. If a user doesn't have authorization for a command, then don't show it. If the option is destructive, then confirm with N number of dialogs. Also, the ENTIRE user interface is in italics.*
Admin interfaces should never have hidden options.
