I go with a "fail, rinse, repeat" approach, but it's costing me time to go through them and then memorise the value at which I was happy with the result – this slightly unpredictable behaviour affects my learning curve.

Numbers are also too abstract to truly represent a UI composition. This contributes to difficulty of associating an option to a preferred setting.

Describe the solution you'd like When talking about customisations, use verbose labels that describe as much as possible – but in a concise way – the expected result. Another iteration on this would be actually using visual compositions.
