How is it a nonsensical mess? It’s clean, searchable, allows to fallback to json..

I get it might not be perfect, but "nonsensical mess" is maybe in bad faith here.

Valid question. There's some area where the text of the setting's state is the opposite of what the checkbox shows. I'll try to dig up a screen shot.

Historically, setting syntax colors has sucked too, but I don't remember the current state of that.
