    This behavior is pretty insane. Just provide an option to turn off the behavior, it's really not that complicated.

    "Working as designed" your design is flawed.. everyone in any form of production knows that more steps to complete an actions means more time, more money, and lost production. We should have the option to just click the X and everything shuts down.. @unity if you do not agree, you are doing all your users a disservice, especially if you are not applying the philosophy that the less steps it takes to perform a task means more and faster iterations in any type of project, but not over looking security of course, which should be the only reason for an adding an additional step in a process, which does not include innovation or improvements.

    I need to exit Unity Hub to test my project templates every time and it's frustrating.
