I've recently gone through and deleted all my rules to start from scratch, disabling autocreation of new rules. A checkbox for each rule with ability to delete or disable would certainly have made this easier (and less scary if you weren't going the nuclear path I was). I think manually creating rules is a good exercise but also exposes some of the flexibility I wish LM offered: OR conditions and ability to perform an operation more than once (for example, matching multiple payees) are the two most important to me.

Lol, very true. Every transaction that I categorize makes a new rule. So every now and then I have to clean up the hundreds of rules

hahah I agree, but I do find them very helpful when I do repetitive tasks and LM notices. My one gripe with rules is that sometimes I end up with many rules affecting the same payee, for example. I would be great if there's a way to merge them together, almost figure out if two rules are affecting the same payee then merge them and just have two conditions?
