There are plenty of blender users that have a wheel mouse. In fact.. 
actual three-button mice are much more rare. By a large margin. So you 
should have rephrased your comments to say, "But I don't have a wheel 
mouse."

Zooming with a wheel mouse is particularly nice. You can also pan/rotate 
using the wheel combined with modifier keys.

As for it being an exclusive control... of course that isn't a good idea 
but he's obviously not done.

How about some positive feedback about the new mouse control Alexander? 
I've used it and I find it to be fantastic.
