OsmAnd has lots of users with differing needs and requirements, and it's impossible to keep them all happy. I wouldn't support removing the dashboard--it allows quicker access to things such as nearby favourites, as well as your search history. Without the dashboard, it would take several more taps to access common functionality. Also, unlike the main menu, the dashboard can be user-customised for greater convenience. Map markers are similar to favourites but favourites are generally permanent, whereas markers are more temporary. I see value in having both. If you don't want to use both and prefer to use favourites for everything, that's fine--you can use OsmAnd as you wish.
