When you select *My Preferences* from the user dropdown, you get to 
`/preferences`, which is a page that shows you your preferences but doesn't 
let you edit them. If you want to edit, you'll have to make one extra click 
on the *Edit Preferences* button. See 
https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/issues/5324#issuecomment-2563164175
 for some click count considerations.

The question is why do you need the uneditable preferences page. It was added 
in 
https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/commit/2403630da87df8a3b57913e8949ae0ff8f611d22.
 The reasoning according to #3167 was to split the settings form. But that 
doesn't explain why the uneditable page was added. When you click *My 
Settings*, you get to an editable page. When you click *My Preferences*, you 
don't. If you don't want to edit your preferences, can you just view 
them on the editable page? I think you can. Why don't we make *My 
Preferences* always editable?
