Isn't that enough?  Most flashdisks are removable.  The world is
certainly full of removable media.

More to the point, what are you objecting to?  Your objections sound a
whole lot like "I have no use for this so I don't think it should go
in", despite others who clearly do have a use for it - and even if
nobody has an immediate use for it that's sufficiently serious to
satisfy you, having such things available for people to play with
greatly increases the chance that someone will find a use nobody has
previously thought of.
