That means where I have defined or set my maximum heat per room after the thermal balancing, I turn the temperature controller to max. Unless I want a room to be a bit cooler, then I turn the temperature down. Is that correct?
Honestly, I also find it an imposition what has been imposed on us as builders. I want to make my life easier, not more complicated.
Yes, you can see it that way or not. Compare it to computers or the internet / modern devices where nowadays you almost can’t get by without registering online or via an app. Not everyone can do that from birth either. Our world is becoming more technical, which requires certain knowledge or training, or you pay someone for it.
The problem right now is that those who install the heat pump often don’t have enough knowledge/experience themselves and have too much work, so the heating engineer then happily says, yeah, I set it roughly, the rest can be controlled by the thermostat (yeah, sure).
Please look up thermal balancing separately in a search engine.
The principle is that you open everything fully. (It should then become too warm almost everywhere; if it gets too warm everywhere, then you could also lower the flow temperature, etc.) And then slowly start turning each one down individually until the appropriate temperatures prevail in the rooms. (also very simplified) Since the system is sluggish, you have to wait one day after each change to see the effects. Also, sunlight or similar can still influence the result.
But if you have done it correctly and the system is not otherwise messed up, you can leave the room controllers fully open or even unscrew the actuators.
