Please don't tell other people how they should live.
Personally I love travelling light (<10kg carry-on pack for 2 months last year to South America) but it isn't for everyone.

Only if you value your time at nearly $0. They are incredibly annoying when travelling - too often a 10 or 15 minute walk each way to one. Great for backpacking, but a complete waste of time if you only have a limited amount of time for your holiday.
Having just got back from a 8 week European vacation, with a wife+kid+me.
There's also the small issue of it being was 95F degrees outside at 75% humidity (southern France). This means 1 outfit isn't lasting more than a day (sometimes only 1/2 a day) before becoming unbearably stinky. x3 this means laundry needs to be done every other day or packing a ton of stuff.
