+;;; UI Adjustments
+;; ---------------
+;; The primary goal of this Section is to prevent Emacs from flashing or
+;; stuttering visually on startup.
+;;
+;; If these customizations were placed in `init.el', as is the norm,
+;; Emacs would initialize the UI elements, then make whatever
+;; customizations we wrote.
+;;
+;; By placing the customizations here, they are applied before the UI is
+;; initialized, preventing any visual glitches altogether.
+;; ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+;; ---------------------------------
+;; Disable superfluous UI elements
+;; -------------------------------
+;; These UI elements are useless in
+;; a keyboard-centric environment.
