On average, yeah, but when it's worse, it's the most bafflingly bad.

Like why is the only way to be able to open files in a hidden folder to remember a keyboard shortcut? There's no icon, and you can't type a subfolder name.

Windows’ weird UX of having that temporary view setting in the context menu makes no sense, but at least I don't have to Google how to do it every time.
