There is even Darktable fork Ansel where they try to roll back lot of these ux mishaps.

Once you care only about editing and not cataloging then RawTherapee ends up being better editor for mr.

AFAIK, the reasons Ansel exists are:

1. To yank out darktable internals for code purity reasons.

2. Its (talented) developer worked better by himself than in group.

He was vehemently opposed to any idea containing the words "intuitive" or "UX".
