Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.

"This Week in Plasma" brings the news that System Settings' pages become "smart" and can mark themselves as "not relevant" if, for example, you do not have the hardware to use them. They can also export actions to the sidebar, allowing you to quickly toggle devices on and off. And Discover can now be opened directly from Install buttons on FlatHub.

Read about this, and much more in Nate's blog post:

I Love being able to see "not relevant" settings because it helps tremendously with debugging and/or helping others navigate through settings that i might not have on my own pc. Having bluetooth settings marked at "not relevant" is much more helpful than the settings just completely missing if you have issues with the hardware being detected. Otherwise you might just think that you are looking at the wrong place sending you on a wild goose chase with no end.
