3x more enjoyable? Really? Maybe 4x? By "necessary UI improvements" you mean they are necessary because....?

Well if you chose to use color or non default elements then you would have to make sure your customizations were also updated to still maintain usability.

That aside, I am curious to know if you disagree that putting padding on the browser would make viewing your site more enjoyable?

Slightly more "enjoyable", yes. 3x no. As long as http://www.useit.com is worse I'm ok ;)

Changing color isn't a "necessary UI improvement".

I was just calling out your language. Saying "3x" and "necessary" when that's not what you mean.
