The face dot is really important at all times, though. For instance it’s not uncommon to accidentally cancel an extrusion which results in an extrusion of zero depth. This was easy to see in 2.79. It would look like an edge with a face dot in the center of it. I think it should be an option. Because I remember going to Blender after using 3ds Max for 20+ years and thinking the face dots cluttered the display too much, which they do, but are great for quickly visualizing problems with the mesh if that’s what’s needed.
