Yes, that's a better solution to the random collection 'o stuff problem, but it doesn't address all of the problems.

More options means having to maintain and support the software in more potentially different states. More options means more code. More options means refactoring the menus whenever you had an option :(

Or, in the simplest analysis, more options makes it harder to code, design, and support the software, while not actually offering any benefit to most users.
