All in all I think the proposed UI really helps to make things easier, not only for people who are "too lazy to learn the details" and options like ALSA MIDI or PA bridge are not as unreasonable as you think. They are options anyway. I agree with you on the 32-bit bit depth setting. Other than that I like the proposed UI much better than what you are suggesting here. In fact your proposal is an even more "dumb" UI. What's the difference between music and audio production anyway? Where do you know from, that I don't also need low-latency in an audio production context? Or that I don't need to listen to some web-audio on my monitor speakers while working on a new song? You don't, and that's why the original proposal gives me the choice to enable the features I want, while striping away some of the more obscure jack parameters.
