Well, since I'm only speaking for myself, I'll refrain from commenting 
on most users.  My situation isn't typical.

For my uses, a recovery partition is not needed.  One isn't really 
needed.  Two would be redundant.  Three would be a burden.  Four would 
be ridiculous.  And FIVE is just an outright pain in the ass.

I have a partition for Lion, Mountain lion, Mavericks (my daily OS), my 
Clone drive of Mavericks (for a REAL recovery disk, as well as to test 
things out before committing to them), and the Yosemite beta.  I also 
have a partition for Snow Leopard, Windows XP and Windows 7... but they 
don't make their own recovery disks.

And before you ask, it's a work requirement.  We open and translate 
customer files with the same OS version in which they were created.  
Kinda dumb, I thought... but I follow the procedure.  We open the 
files, contourize the text, embed the images, preserve the 
transparencies, convert the CT's to more easily editable tiffs and 
(sometimes) apply our fingerprint DGC curves based on press 
configuration and Conventional or UV ink requirements.

So, for me, an optional install would be better than having to take the 
extra steps to delete the partition.  I really don't think I would 
benefit from five recovery disks.

If you're not a part of the solution, there's good money to be made 
prolonging the problem.
