Yes, of course. But then I’ve asked myself: “how was my brain ‘programmed’ to work that way in the first place.” The answer is usually: “oh, yeah, from other software.”
Obviously there would be “stupider” and more counterintuitive ways of designing software (like “up” arrows — which on my keyboard actually face horizontally away from me rather than up — moving selected items down on the screen). But bigger ideas like “how would I globally control the relative distances between staves relative to how they’re beamed?” is pretty high-level, artificial, learned behavior.
(BTW, I almost tucked this away inside a Hide Details tab, but then I realized that it’s actually an important general aspect of getting adjusted from Finale.)
