If I press return on the text indicated by an arrow on the attached
picture I get the error:
You can’t edit this part of the Custom buffer
Why? Why do I have to stand on the box specifically to toggle the
option? Customize should allow me to press return on the text
too to toggle the option.

Clarification: not just on the text, but anywhere on the line (maybe before
the colon), so at the beginning of the line too, etc.

Since there can be several buttons on a single line, I think it makes
sense to make just the buttons be interactive -- adding DWIM here would
be potentially confusing, so I'm closing this bug report.

Could you show a customize page which has multiple buttons on a line?
I'd like to take a look.

Looks like there can't be multiple buttons on a line, because the implementation puts a newline after every widget:
https://github.com/emacs-mirror/emacs/blob/master/lisp/cus-edit.el#L1759
Check the
(widget-insert "\n")
lines.

Apologies for not following this thread.
If the question is general, asking whether the Customize UI
ever has more than one button on a line, the answer is yes.
Any :type of (repeat sexp), for example, has both INS and DEL
buttons on the same line. E.g. `auto-coding-functions'.
And of course the buttons after "Operate on all..." are on
the same line.

The report was about the checkbox option which usually has a tiny box and a much longer text label and only the tiny box can be activated.
See the attached screenshot and report in the first post.
Are there multiple such checkboxes in one line somwehere in Customize?
