The windows UI being boring doesn’t necessarily have to be caused by a lack of customizability. The windows UI is just a boring UI design even if you make it more customizable. Makes it better, but doesn’t fix the problem IMO.
Yes, but it has some “quirks” that for somebody are a waste of time. Sometimes better and usable is enough.
For example I profoundly hate the start menu’s suggested apps default window. I just want it to list all apps when I click it. And on win 11 this is not customizable.
isnt that the point of using a 3rd party option. while windows isnt as customizable as Linux, i fond it odd that people are trying to customize the native windows button instead of using a 3rd party one and customizing that, in which you would have much more control of the function.
No, the point is that people want a basic functionality implemented since windows 3.1 at least without having to pay (or tinker) for a dedicated app to restore usability.
It’s not so odd when what you hate is exactly the lack of customizability.

The registry for that can be disabled. Not that it makes Windows much better
Yes but the updates tend to reset it.
