That’s the actual issue. There are some people that are led by icomography. i.e. I don’t have bad near-sight vision so I won’nt need icons, but I happen to be trying to learn german and set my phone in german, so it’s a good clue when things are appropiately labeled with an icon so I don’t get lost and still can learn about how something is named in german.
All in all if you don’t want all those icons then there should be a setting to hide all but the most important ones - or all icons regardless.
Unless they are inconsistent or repetitive. As the article points out.
