Yes, one can style them with a userstyle as always.

Feel free to change your browser's default stylesheet if you're not satisfied with it.

Your browser has a 'Page style/No Style' option to take care of stuff like that.

User's can disable or modify CSS whenever and however they want :)

Take me back to when user stylesheets were a normal browser feature and not a special extension

css stylebot or a smiliar extension that allows you to create persistent stylesheets could help you! i think your grievance is legitamate

That's what UserChrome.css is for.

You can switch to it using an user style sheet for your browser.

On the contrary. It's CSS, you can change all of this in your browser's CSS overrides if you want.

If that's how you feel, why not disable CSS?
