Education!  That item that no one seems to have budgeted...  *sigh*  

Our infinite collection of user queries would be a LOT smaller if users knew
all of the standard reports that were available.

And, our infinite collection would be equally small if every user didn't
create the same query.  With literally thousands of queries, it's simpler to
create one than to try and find out if someone else has written the query
you need.
