I think this is a fair point about a lot of Open Source tools. For all the
claims that you hear "real musicians don't use presets, they make their
own patches" I think the truth is that if you can't reach for a tool and
immediately get something good and inspiring from it you're unlikely to
persist with it long.
A well organised, wide range of musically useable presets transforms a synth,
or effect's appeal. Without that it's a matter of faith that the synth will
actually repay your time investment in it.
