You can think anything you wish, but I still haven’t seen anything that says on this existing specific web page it needs to do B instead of (or in addition to) A, something that can be translated into programming code.
Support for uploading in-progress events to a US Chess hosted site is outside of my sphere of influence, but it does seem like there are multiple alternatives already available.
You may recall the recent discussion about the checkbox on the tournament signoff form, once it was clear what folks were talking about, a change was made that may not have solved everyone’s problem but did focus the page on the checkbox, so it was an improvement, but maybe not a huge one.
The line about reducing the number of clicks is vague, too. IMHO there are always a lot of (aka, too many) clicks needed to accomplish anything useful. It reminds me of the frequent requests US Chess gets from various communities to put something on the home page rather than one or two clicks away from it. I think the latest redesign made finding the right page easier, but at one point about a decade ago I counted them and there were over 100 clickable links on the home page!
As I have said more than once in this thread or similar ones, if I knew in 2004 what I know now, the tournament entry/submission system would almost certainly have been built a lot differently. Like many people, I’m hoping that the move to Leago gives us enough of a clean sheet that we can fix a number of long-standing weaknesses, though most likely creating new ones people will ask to have improved in the future.
MSA is a separate issue, I didn’t write it and my requests to rewrite it were never approved by the EB/ED, but it, too, should go the way of the dodo bird in about a year.
And I may finally get to full retirement, 9 years after I left the full-time payroll, which likely means an end to all the ad-hoc data I’ve been able to generate and post, too, like all the recent data on player-directors in events.
