Would be sensible in fact because this leaves you the power to decide. The other way round is simply wrong: We'd include AMS whenever there is a \binom macro defined somewhere. This could even stem from some packege that is not compatible with AMS and LyX happily includes AMS - and, what's worse - there would be _no_ way to change this. And it's not just \binom, if we were consequent this would hold for _any_ of the 200 or so AMS symbols, too.
