Quiddity can you explain why you add a one more step in the contribution? Why the click to expand?

Hi. Yeah, that section of filters was too big for some people (both before and after the accessibility/OOUI redesign) who complained, so it was changed to be collapsed.
However that brought up this issue of the group of people who do actually use those control-features constantly (a small but crucial demographic), which is why they're now also working on phab:T234569 to make it "sticky" (so if you expand it, it will always be expanded for you).
TLDR: It will be fixed.
