The problem is that it might take a half-dozen clicks to realize it's not worth reading the other 24, then you need to click back a half-dozen times (worse if there are page reloads during that).
- ergothus 8y agoThat's my point though - if it takes a half-dozen clicks to decide it's not worth it, then they weren't using a good format anyway. You likely did the last 5 clicks hoping things would be different after the click - the click itself was NOT a value add. I'm not saying it isn't useful to bypass that to get back, but then you're literally asking the people that made the bad design decision in the first place to make the good one to let you out - and they likely won't, for the same reasons they gave you that UI in the first place.
