There’s a concept in design that I forget the name of and too lazy to look it up - but the idea is that you don’t want to overwhelm people with too many choices. More choices = more time and effort to make a decision. And once you repeat this mistake throughout your app, you’re creating unnecessary friction and stress.

The paradox of choice is I believe the title of a TED talk on this subject and Dan Airly god help me I misspelled his name for sure, wrote a book on this.

Ask not what you can show to your users, but what you can hide and still allow for good discovery.

Ideally the design gives a perfect mental map to the user about how they should use your tool, so a user doesn't need to consciously think about anything
