Could be where things go…UX is all about less is more ..less steps. Time will tell.

That’s the simplistic view of UX thats commonly sold.

Less steps isn’t always better. Friction has its place.

A basic example is an “Are you sure?” confirmation before a destructive action.

I wish there wasn’t so much focus on “less clicks.” It’s often to the company’s benefit at the detriment of the user
