Two tiny buttons, both can bring bliss as well as disastrous effects. I'm speaking of course about "increase autonomy" and "decrease autonomy" little squares pinned to provincial view.

5 minutes ago my mouse pointer slipped a little and instead of decreasing local autonomy, I increased it. In my wealthiest province. As a tiny country. I'm screwed of a hefty portion of my income for several decades. I'd reload my game but it's ironman mode. Please add some confirmation popup or allow players to revert their decision before the end of the month when it actually has its first effects. If I made the mistake in the other direction, i.e., decreased autonomy in an already revolting rich province, the game would be ruined.

I seldom play ironman because one missclick can ruin a whole game. Please keep that in mind and wherever the decision is important, add some confirmation. With an option to disable it for people who think they never make mistakes and want to brave it ;)

There are several other similar places, like peace summary that lists all peace conditions. It's just a long, jumbled up list, something of very little use. EU4 interface is generally very hard to read without mods that drastically improve its user-friendliness but it becomes a serious issue only when mistakes are irreversible.
