Not a particular burden. It's just arbitrary. Why profiles for these
particular combination of groups/excludes? Why not others? When we add more
categories (which we almost certainly will), how much sense will it make to
preserve a single distinct combination, but others?
I just don't see much value in establishing these particular presets, and
it will be confusing as more categories are added why this particular subset of
possible presets are added as convenience profiles for everybody.
If there's a good reason why these particular presets are useful, above all
other potential future combinations of categories, for now and in the future,
then I'd say we'd have a strong reason to pre-define them. Otherwise, I think
they're better omitted, and not singled out in the docs.
