Maybe are you replying to the wrong person/note?
Btw, I don't think SBW ever presented itself as "power user wallet".
I agree this is not the best interface for many details and of course was not curated by a designer (OBW is much better in this respect, at least on the colors palette), but call it "shitty" without even try it is a bit hasty, isn't? :) Download OBW, open an hosted channel for few sats and play with it. Maybe you can change your mind.
Which do you think is a great self-custody LN client? And why?
