Beginners might just create new materials for each mesh they make rather
than knowing how to reuse old materials.
Assuming they know how to reuse materials, your mockup is a convenient way
to add new materials. Well theoretically it is more convenient... but in
reality, it can be more convenient to begin with a similar material, then go
to "add new", and it creates a copy of it so that you don't need to re-enter
all the similar properties.
