In fact sophisticated pinhole aficionadoes have all the basic controls, they just use very small f-stops and no lens.

OTOH, I have always wondered why one would buy a Diana, or Holga, when the same money would buy a clean all metal Box Brownie they used 120 film before Kodak figured out that they could sell more film if they made the spool slightly smaller (620), so other manufactures film would not fit. George felt so guilty about that he killed himself.

That last sentence is factious humor, I do not even know that the time frames match, and am pretty sure the facts don't.
