Just to be the devil's advocate here: There are way more settings now than back then. That interface wouldn't cut it either.
The problem isn't the new coat of paint - it's more that Microsoft keeps painting half the building then starting over for the new OS. It's frustrating that the key to finding a setting is knowing when it was developed to know which UI you need to be digging through.
Even on 11 hit winkey+r then type in CONTROL
Not convinced the number matter as much if settings are indexed and thus searchable, which they probably are now otherwise the "AI" wouldn't be able to access them. So... just more convolutions for the end user?
