Is it just me or is the UI terrible?

My parents got a new (Samsung) TV so I was helping them finish setting it up.

I feel like I have to dig through 3 layers to get to the real settings are and then there are 2 or 3 different places you can find different settings. Initially I found where to change the names of the HDMI inputs, then struggled to find it again later, it's burred in a really weird place. The human factors consideration on the remote was non-existent; I 100% can't tell for sure if I've pressed one of the buttons. The left/right/up/down button is the worst, and of course that's the one that is the most used!

I have two Samsung TV sets. The remotes are the worst. I like to watch TV in a low-light room. The buttons are unreadable. I don't know how many times I have wanted to pause a show and accidentally sent the TV back to the home screen.
