   🐿 People who start the game
   🦝 People who sniff around the options menu and then start the game

   Broadly,
   🐿 Straightforward people who want to get on with doing the thing they wanted to do in the first place.
   🦝 FIDDLERS. They FIDDLE with things. They can't help it. Fiddling with the thing's settings or whatever is an integral part of their enjoyment of the thing.

   People who get interested in Game Dads or retro emulation in general tend to be 🦝, because these machines are fiddly by nature, and kinda self-select for 🦝.

   By an overwhelming majority, most people are 🐿.

   By an overwhelming majority, 🦝 find it hard to remember that most people are 🐿.
