Then everyone is happy instead of only a percentage of customers even if Nokia has to work a little harder to get you to buy another product from them and begin to slow down their huge dropping in market share for this category.

Good grief. I don't think Nokia/maemo could be any more out of touch with customer expectations/wants/needs.
While I would prefer choice (Nokia has axed some things I actually liked.. one thing they're removing in the 1.1 update is the ability to use the softkeyboard to cap, space, delete, etc.. with swipes) soembody posted a reason why choice wouldn't work in the long run.

Choice means having to test multiple configurations, leading to more issues and slower releases of firmware. Unless Nokia decided to support one method and just leave the other choice the "unpaved path". Basically meaning they wouldn't test it but they leave it in.

Only problem is that would mean that it would confuse people so maybe hide the option.

I would prefer that solution over their way or the highway though.
