To make the Mac forever more 'iPhone' is a terrible mistake. It makes the Mac harder to use and makes it more and more redundant. If I wanted an iPhone as my main computing device, I would just use my iPhone! The Mac should have distinct modus operandi. 

I absolutely hate the new System Settings in Mac OS. I feel abused by them. Safari has gone downhill by not working correctly with many sites and if they interfere with Calculator, I may abandon Mac for good. None of these changes have been in right direction. Where is the Mac team when you need them?

The Settings app has always been challenging. While Apple has made much needed improvements over several releases, it is still quite baffling and lacking a common schema or recognizable hierarchy. Are all settings organized by functionality like Connectivity, Storage, Passwords, Peripherals, etc. Yes and no. ......

......A great UX/UI team will always find a way to blend the user experience, look & feel, and aesthetics of an app together in a way that make sense and truly connects better with a greater number of users. 

I share your general feelings about the organization of Settings, and it offends my delicate sensibilities of orderliness and thoughtfulness. It's irksome that Apple hasn't quite figured this out, as it wouldn't seem to take a team of geniuses to think about a structure for it. Perhaps it's because most users only go there once in a while after setup.

Regardless, I certainly don't see any excuse for not having an immediate fix available in the next OS issue. This isn't recoding the OS.

Settings has become a train wreck.

It's now just a list—the blindingly obvious thing to do is to order it alphabetically.
