Reminds me of the Info-Dialogue-Box I removed from an application last year. This saved perhaps 1 second to click it away each time it was shown. I estimated that it shows up about 3,000 times a month in the company. This means 36,000 times a year, or 180,000 times in 5 years, that is equivalent to 50 hours. -- It took me perhaps 10 minutes to remove it, including tests. With average labour costs of 50 Euros per hours for the users, the company is going to save about 2,500 Euros over a period of 5 years.

Possibly related, the other day I removed a few dozen iOS simulators, but each one triggered a confirmation popup (they stacked, lol). But I noticed that with this version of MacOS, each one animates away, and the animation has to be finished before the next one disappears. Disabling animations / reducing motion makes these dialog appear / disappear animations go away and the interactions a lot snappier. I wanted to reduce the animation time of switching screens / workspaces as well but reducing motion just changes it from a swipe to a fade animation, which wasn't any better for me.
