Strange default 5 done for who? Looks like we were on top of UI design in early 2000-s until Google decided their users are idiots.

Sadly this really isn't for the casual user. Instructions here. I wish the constant was configurable but it's hard coded. To make this one tiny change you have to re-compile all of Chromium. And the result will be a custom version of "Chromium" not "Google Chrome". Chromium lacks a few special things like support for viewing WideVine DRM content which is necessary to use any streaming service.
