Displays should present the simplest information consistent with their function; information irrelevant to the task should not be displayed, and extraneous text and graphics should not be present.
Additional Information:
Displayed information should be tailored to user needs, providing only necessary and immediately usable data for any user action; displays should not be overloaded with extraneous information. Information not needed for the current task (e.g., patent notices, manufacturer's trademark or address) should not be displayed. In general, the fewest lines or objects in a graphical display should be used.
