Annoying UX decision:
Not allowing copy/paste on payment, address, or password forms.
Some websites (usually old and antiquated) prevent pasting from the clipboard on PII-sensitive forms. While that may seem like a good idea, and may increase protection against *some* automated agents, it is an annoyance that increases user stress and the likelihook of making a typing mistake.
I've seen it commonly on the "re-enter your password" field. This strongly discourages the use of safely-scrambled passwords generated by password managers (Bitwarden FTW!).
Yuck. If you've got this UX, go fix it!

Interesting take.
As purely a user, I agree that this is all I care about 99.9% of the time.
