I understand the arguments made here (especially on Institute's post about making automation much faster) but I personally enjoy the linear nature of blend markers and I don't have to worry about it too much with the current interface.
If we had a DAW setup, it would be more difficult to set point A and point B for blend markers. With the current sliders, I already have a visual of how high/low I want to set point B because of the middle point and red zones. I suppose this kind of concept could be implemented in the DAW setup but I don't think it would be as tasteful to look at.
In general I'm also very reluctant to see huge overhauls on the OS UI because while I'm glad the site infrastructure is getting more powerful, I don't want it to look like a DAW. There needs to be some annoying novelty about it while still remaining useful if that makes sense. If we add huge menus of anything, I think that new users would be more overwhelmed. The current setup makes it that new users eventually learn about new features and they're not all up in your face.
