I personally don't see much logic behind an 'install everything' option but my opinion counts as much (or as little) as yours does...and it is this type of decision making process that does things like alter installation options and elects people like 'W' - there is a bottom line issue...you can't please everyone all the time. Seriously though...there was a bunch of consternation about what represented 'install everything', there was emphasis on reducing the packages that are part of core and moving stuff out to extras which is really where people are wanting to install everything...not from core.
