I don't like UI components. I don't want to drag things on screen and put them on each other to something to happen. Can't we have TUI instead, with fixed position menus, sane shortcuts, search bar for actions and options and such? Just the other day I was wondering about how we have the touchscreen ticket vending machines for ~10 years now, and they are still not working when the whether is sunny or rainy. Moving the cursor with physical buttons was a much better construction.
