but with all this in gnome you are changing system setting/appearance. You dont have to go into gnome settings to change default webpage on default brovser.
Camera resolution settings outside of camera app. Brilliant.
Email.....one place to setup account, another one to download images automatically (or not) and the app itself.
Units for weather outside of weather app.
Do I have to go on? Like I said, I'll never change those settings after initial setup but still think that they are in the wrong place.
