The last example has neither.

You're right, but:
I beginner friendly UX is a safer bet. Besides, if a user has to manually enter all those fields (assuming it continues off screen) then that's a job for a machine, not a human. Large data input jobs are dehumanizing.
What control do you have in either experience?
And the flip side of that is that the stuff you actually use is spread over 5 pages worth of scrolling and requires you to read like 100 labels until you find the text boxes you want
I would argue that the first two require you to jump through hoops for edge cases, while the last one requires you to jump through hoops for every case.
People at my company are like "why are we wasting screen real estate with white space?" and I imagine they see the last image is an ideal UX
I'm pretty familiar with the uncanny valley, and I don't really think it applies to kitchens beyond as a metaphor. But then again, you could say the same about my relating it to the fine art market (and I cannot stress enough how little my expertise is in this regard lol).
Nothing with people IRL is ever a linear relationship so I imagine the truth is somewhere in-between lol
We're both just speculating here. I'd be interested if anyone has done any studies on this, I doubt it. Not really something useful for society.
I was basing my speculation off of the very little I've learned about the sale of art (paintings, etc) where art with a broad appeal doesn't go for much, but niche art will sell for much more if you can find a buyer. But I'm sure there are depths to that of which I'm completely unaware, and I'm sure it can't just be applied to home renos just like that. I just get a gut feeling that there are some parallels.
Typical capitalist race to the bottom to appease investors with short term decision making
What I'm saying is that it's a tradeoff. The fuller the send, the harder it is to find a buyer, but the more they'll pay.
Conversely, the emptier(???) the send, the more buyers will be interested, but the less you can charge.
I think going tackier would let them charge more if they found a buyer, but it would make it even less likely to find a buyer. This is already a full enough send the they're struggling to find anyone interested, send it any harder and there would be no chance.
With art, there is an inverse relationship between the number of people who will buy it and how much they'll pay for it. Art everyone wants is cheap, niche art is expensive.
If you go full send, you can charge more if the stars align and you can find a buyer.
There are more beginners then there are experts, so in the absence of research a beginner UI is a safer bet.
And yes, if you definite "beginner" to be someone with expert training and experience, then yes an expert UI would be better for that "beginner". What a strange way to define "beginner" though.
