On the other hand, presumably Steve was happy with the insanity of the iOS settings app, where applications had their settings only accessible in another application.

I kind of like the iOS settings application. If I want to change some settings for an application, I have one place I have to go to find it. I don't need to launch the app and try to guess where their designer decided to stick settings (probably buried deep in a hamburger menu). I don't have to guess whether a dark gray switch on a light gray background is "on" or whether a light gray switch on a dark gray background is "on" because the app's designer thought it would be cool to not use native controls.
I honestly wish this "central settings" app idea would spread to desktop operating systems.
Yeah, it half-ass made sense? Maybe?
I mean when the apps are small and have just a couple settings, you save having every app having a settings widget that takes you to another panel, etc.
(But a "Good" iOS app in my mind would still have a widget in the app to take you straight to the correct pane in Settings where you configure it.)
