Simple QOL Features Please

Fleet Carriers: an overlay or an icon on the galaxy map so you know which systems are full before you click on them. Also, if they are full just return to previous GALMAP screen and not the carrier services menu.

Can we return to the Horizons UI? Main issue: keyboards. Again, fleet carriers etc but if I want to sell something at 5,500 cr can't I just type "5500" on my keyboard instead of holding up then down, up again, down down down up? I get the current UI was for Xbox but since they're all gone now, let's get back to our PC based UI.

Love the new engineering, can we skip the 3, 4, or 5 clicks for upgrade and just do one? Again, typing click and the UI box could say "What grade?" and you just select it and boom. done.

Can we finally silence the "1% of liners out there" and wedding jitters and such? It's been 10 years now.

Finally, the controllers are gone, we all have keyboards or HOTAS setups.... please can we get more than 2 fire buttons?

Yes to the first. There are lots of menus where the return is too far from where we were.

While I don’t use one I am aware that a great many people do use them and have used them for years and they aren’t just console refugees. Some use all three.

Just finished engineering a Corvette the other day, and was thinking the same thing. If I have the prerequisite materials, I'd love to just do all the steps for a grade with one click per grade. Or even better, just finish all the grades 1 through 5 completely, provided enough materials are present.

Yep, that's me! Controller for on-foot (grew up playing console shooters like Halo), HOTAS for ships & SRVs, keyboard and mouse for menus and other interfaces like the galaxy map. They're all at my fingertips and all have their uses and strengths.

I don't own a carrier so can't comment on the OPs first point. I would like to see more menu utility for M&K, typing exact amounts to trade, etc, that'd be nice. One touch G5 engineering where reputation and stored materials allow would be a minor improvement, but welcome. More variety in chatter would also be very welcome.
