I know that some of these require a lot more research and fixes than normal because they've been ported from other devices, but it seems the time is being spent otherwise on integrating nue apps into WM (and not allowing them to be removed) that don't appeal to all users.
Upon using DCD's kitchen and previous builds of ppckitchen, I have never needed to use his modifications of critical apps. The phone has functioned fine and I don't see why they MUST be included in the final product other than gaining some street cred.

Most of these were inherent issues with 20226. The nue apps that are integrated are probably in your DCD rom as well (they're more like tweaks than they are "new"). You should find that just about all nue products are user selectable since 19588. pre-19588 kitchens had heavy involvement w/ no2chem because he was willing and DCD wasn't. DCD is welcome to rejoin the party at any time.
That being said, your issue is ridiculous. DCD forces you to use his tweaks and app modifications when you use his kitchen. The extent to which we choose to integrate modifications is no different.

You're not seriously going to state that DCDs kitchen is more flexible with a broader set of choices than PPCKitchen's, are you?

Not attacking anyone, but that's my opinion and that's why I've moved to DCD's offerings.

Yes, 20226 turned out to suck. 20270 is far superior. Most of the major issues in 20226 and 20270 kitchens were from problems caused by shifts in how we do things in order to make a common kitchen base for multiple platforms and to optionize things like No2Chems apps. While there have been some initial hurdles to overcome, most issues have been resolved as of the 7/30/08 release of BuildOS, device cores, and 20270.
As you stated, the purpose of a kitchen is to let you pick what you want and don't want. PPCKitchen is proud to offer you the premier kitchen environment and the most flexible and broad kitchens there are.
