> Speaking as a member of the accessibility team, there are a lot of
problems in the visual editor for various types of disabilities, so for
some people with disabilities the simplicity of the text editor makes the
writing process much simpler. While it's true that users can disable this
for themselves, having it completely disabled at the user level helps make
certain that they won't have to repeat that action later.
Maybe I miss something. Removing this UI do not change anything in the
editor, you are still able yo switch from the visual editor to the text
one. The only UX impact is that you will still have the visual tab in the
editor, but there is nothing that forces you to use it and the default is
always the last one you used.
