Emacs doesn't have a View menu. And frankly, in an editor, too many things are about "viewing" for View to be of any use. Also, Options in many apps is not easily discovered, its place is not fixed: sometimes in Tools, sometimes somewhere else. Emacs, being a highly-customizable application, cannot avoid having Options at top level.
