Probably not.
Look, as insufferable as Windows 11 is, you're already used to the workflows there.

You can also derive these values by rounding the cube root of 10 (2.15) and the cube root squared of 10 (4.64) to the nearest integers.
That technique of taking the n-th root of an interval and then raising it to powers less than n is how you build a set of preferred numbers over the interval […]

For some additional context: the 2-5-10 series of preferred numbers is neat because it roughly equally divides the decade logarithmically into thirds using integer values. Log10(2) ≈ 0.30 which is very close to 0.3333... and log10(5) ≈ 0.70 which is very close to 0.6666...

No matter how many times I set Windows 10 to use dark mode somehow after a few reboots it sets back to using light mode and this has irritated me for multiple years on end.
This is a piece of software that I PAID FOR. Why does it STILL have this irritating fucking bug after years of existing. >:(
