Blender user interface rant

As a UX designer, I both appreciate and critique the user interface of Blender, a 3D computer graphics software. One aspect that stands out to me is the fact that Blender presents all of its complexity to the user at all times. As a humorous thought experiment, I have wondered what it would be like if the UX designers at Blender were to design a refrigerator. This is a tongue-in-cheek reference to the "refrigerator chapter" in the book “The design of everyday things” by Don Norman, which discusses the importance of intuitive and user-friendly design in everyday objects.
