Also having watched your streams I feel like a lot of your grief that you're attributing to your own skills is actually your subpar tools (I do not like the program you are using)
ANYWAY sorry for this essay. You just seem to be struggling with a lot of things I've had issues with. Hang in there

I spend the majority of my art process erasing bumps in lineart. I'm always looking for ways to make it quicker of course, but it is OK to be like this!! Stuff gets done and I'm happy with what I make

Honestly just reframing your mindset towards "spending a decent chunk of time erasing blobs is ok" rather than tormenting yourself trying to "surgical strike" with clean lines on the first try would probably help you a lot.

Max stabilizing is kind of too much of a good thing (difficult to work with past a certain point. It's frankly HARD to draw that slow).

Have you given CSP a try? I have pretty unsteady hands and it has the best line stabilizer out of anything I've tried. SAI's is pretty good too.
I think I've recommended using larger canvases/brushes to you before (so unsteady lines aren't as apparent) but I feel like it's worth reiterating

Ok answering seriously my other 3 faves are probably Disgaea 2, Kingdom Hearts, and FFX. But I played all 4 .hack games more than the rest of those put together so my joke still stands
