There is no absolute answer to this question. As I've mentioned
previously, most of the software I've had experience documenting has
been in the area of instrumentation, and was highly customizable by
users. But on the hardware side, the launch control console for the
Trident II was solidly in the "Don't do ANYTHING we don't tell you how
to do" camp.
