    "Bearable" and getting "bitten on a somewhat regular basis" hardly
    constitute a ringing endorsement. I wouldn't buy an insect repellent based
    on that testimonial. ;-)

This feature was set up as it is to provide compatibility with many
other graphical interfaces.  We expected this to be good for
beginners.  If helps beginners start using Emacs, it is worth keeping.
Experienced people can customize it.

Whether it really achieves that goal, I don't know.  It would be nice
to get some real data about that, but that is not a trivial task.
