It got included because it was VERY, VERY EASY to add, as it didn't 
require any programming changes.

This is typical -- low-value features that are extremely simple to 
implement are going to get implemented before high-value features (or 
bug fixes) that are extremely complex. It's just your basic low-
hanging fruit strategy.

I'm reminded of the recent exchange in a health care hearing on 
Capitol Hill in DC where a male Congressman observed that he didn't 
need pre-natal care in his health insurance, so he was paying for 
something he couldn't use. A female Congressman pointed out that his 
mother probably needed it, but the point that I'm trying to make in 
relation to Finale is that things that don't matter to you personally 
may matter to enough other Finale users to keep them committed to 
buying upgrades. That's good for everyone in the long run, even if 
it's completely useless to you, personally.
