Would you prefer a less customizable desktop, for increased stability? (discuss.kde.org)

Yes me too. For me they are mostly:

the useless start animation (it is not an overlay but just delays the system start)
the panel, "icons only taskbar" using middleclick to spawn another window, while I want to close
the sounds
the touchpad not being "natural scrolling" · the system monitor not starting with the page didsplaying running programs, and having a warning message when closing an app (like, you only do this in edge cases where it might be time critical)
set animation speed to fastest
set Konsole, Dolphin and okular to always use tabs instead of windows (konsole needs a modded desktop entry for that)
extend the screen lock duration, reduce the screen turnoff duration, remove the dim duration
set power profiles to auto switch depending on charging state
enable some effects, disable some others
disable baloo at it is a crashy memory hog causing tons of trouble for reasons that dont make sense
enable full tememitry
disable the tiling editor and possible workspaces, to save resources?
change keyboard shortcut for "print" to select rectagle selection in spectacle
some different standard programs (like Gapless, SimpleScan and Celluloid instead of Elisa, Skanpage and Haruna/Dragonplayer)
disable floating panel and adaptive opacity
