Mostly I'd agree.

On the other hand, I was always a bit surprised at how many people 
want their synth sound to be instantly recognizable .  I always figured 
one of the strengths of synths was their chameleon-like nature, and that 
a synth was most interesting when you couldn't tell "what the hell 
instrument made that sound".

I found it odd that people would get excited by -- and this is just an
example, don't take it all out of context -- an MS-20 not because of 
the range of sounds it could make, but rather because it had "that MS-20 
Sound".

So, back to topic, having EQ on board makes perfect sense to me -- the
more filters the better!
