One of many reasons it is preferable to write
code rather than to use Customize is that using
Customize you get tangled into a jungle of
unrelated things and that way it is difficult
to find out which things to customize.

At least some of us do.

1. counter-educative
2. unpleasant (hitting buttons instead of typing)
3. imprecise
4. inflexible
5. ungeneralizable and ineffective (learing a UI instead of learning to edit
files)
6. dependent (relying on a tool instead of your own skills)
7. the lamer's choise
