Fighting buggy scripts, that's hard.
Those scripts are in use on millions of installations millions of
times daily. They can hardly be unusably buggy.
Most aren't multi-boot installations. Anyway, if you accept that
writing menu.lst entries wasn't hard, why adopt a bootloader that
requires those scripts in the first place? They're just another
point of failure, and no I'm not going to be convinced against
personal experience that it's an impossible point of failure.
Old Grub just did
what you asked it to, like Syslinux/Extlinux mercifully still do.
In my world, using exotic solutions without pressing reason is
considered a technical liability.
Yes well I install Linux on personal PCs instead of Windows or
MacOS, so that battle is already completely lost in the eyes of
many.
