It annoys me too, I often find such things to be the case. Too many programs don't give the user control over anything; especially modern programs. There are many other things difference too, than how I thought they should be. So, often I write my own software, but sometimes I cannot. Many of my ideas are different from many programs. Better design is you have enough ropes to hang yourself and also a few more just in case (that is UNIX philosophy). (I also hate UEFI, USB, HDMI, WWW, PDF, Unicode, and some other things, so I try to make my own designs to avoid them as much as possible. I also think that any good program should need good documentation; without documentation it is not understandable.)
