In this case it's not even user experience vs. developer experience as you can have both; it's just the cost for performance gets higher as the efficiency decreases. On the other hand: the cost for development goes down if you don't need to pay for extra steps taken by an extra person. If you take a 10-step process that is run by 5 people and reduce it to a 5-step process run by 3, you have 2 more people to do other stuff, or roles that you don't have to create/fill in the first place.
