You are right. It has disadvantages that some items are invisible but it
also has advantages. However I do not believe that accessing an item
fast is of much importance in the help menus. Is it not more important
to easily get an overview of what is there?
I think that is a good point. In Emacs, generally, the menus are not
intended for speed. If you want speed, you use the keyboard. The
menus are there to help beginners get an idea of what they can do.
