To each his own. Some folks are plug 'n play guys, others love adjusting things. Years ago, when all I owned was a decent boutique amp and cab, and an array of stompbox effects, I'd just find a good setting for mostly overdrive, reverb, and delay and forget it.
Because I moved with the times and followed the technology, my mindset and attitude changed with it. I found things that catered better to my personal tastes, and my audience. I found that adjustments were a necessary part of everything, because folks generally liked your tone when your turned up, but also liked your dynamics when you cleaned up and played more softly.
Instead of thinking of this as a simple push-this-button, life became a journey of discovery when you asked yourself, "How can I accomplish such and such?" or "Why does this do what it does?"
That in itself was part of the learning process, and being a student of life in general, my thirst for knowledge was never quite satisfied with simple "Yes, No, or Maybe" answers. One learns more about what one owns when you ask questions about how and why.
If the OP does not enjoy tweaking, perhaps he's got enough things on his mind that doesn't require study or learning. My elderly Mom is the same way. Doesn't bother with stuff that is not important. Sadly, what's important to me IS learning about the deeper things in life, though Mom prefers to focus on more important things. My tendency is to think in more well-balanced and rounded terms, whereas Mom sometimes goes through life with blinders on, tunnel-vision wise.
