I once submitted an issue to a devs GitHub. The apps login page would not load without large bg pictures loading first. I asked if he could add an option to disable it in the settings, as my self hosted site was slow.

I essentially got back, "why would I do that? It's not an issue for me! Besides the login page should load before the background picture" issue closed

It's like you're SO CLOSE to seeing the issue.

Similar thing here. I once went to a Minecraft mod dev's discord to ask if there was a way to center the health bars that come with his mod. He basically said "you're the only person who has ever asked for this, everyone else just puts it in a corner of their screen". I feel centering is a basic feature of any adjustable UI element!
