You know, I think it’s not so much the actual time needed to create a category that is the problem, but the cognitive overhead due to having to go back and forth between screens where only a small part (one category… and a subset of settings for it) of the overall structure is visible. What the visual mockup does is allow me to keep everything in front of my eyes while I’m fiddling with categories and settings, so I can iterate and see what works and doesn’t.
