Disagree. Suppose you have 100 of something and you want to transfer 50 of them, and you make a mistake and immediately cick withut makng the adjustment to the slider. Let's examine the two possibilities, slider defaulting to "1" vs. defaulting to "all":

Default to "1" - oh well, now you have 99 left in stack, and you must do another transfer, but for 49 rather than 50. No biggie. You smack yourself in the forehead and move on. You still have the end result you wanted.

Default to "all" - you're screwed. The whole stack is gone and there's no getting it back. There is no way to get the end result you wanted.

Seems to me that defaulting to "1" allows for a second chance while defaulting to "all" doesn't. I prefer the option with the second chance, and so should every other player who has ever accidentally insta-clicked something.

I can see your point if you make a lot of mini-transfers.

Mine was simply that I cannot ever see a scenario where I'd want to transfer "1" of anything (say, from Star to Mayor's House), but I can see the scenario where I might want to transfer "all", so having the slider default differently might save some clicks. In either case, if you want to transfer half, you'd have to adjust the slider. But I do concede the possibility for human error is as you laid out and agree that leaving the slider as-is helps to mitigate that.

Now, my favorite thing with the new system - if you only have 1 of an item, the slider still shows up. :)
