I'm not claiming to be a professional or knowledgeable, just curious!!

Matt, it doesn't require that much know how, it doesn't require any know how at all, just the ability to look at an image and decide if you prefer it one way or another. If the settings were so perfect as Alex implies in their default positions then the manufacturer's would not give you the opportunity to adjust them.
It's all down to how YOU prefer things to look, just because a bunch of marketing people in a big corporation have decided
they think the majority of their customers will prefer their pictures to look, does not mean you have to agree with them.
