I've got a couple dozen games on an SD card that I just create shortcuts for every time I hard reset. Not installing them again means less clutter in the "Remove Programs" setting panel, which I think is a good thing.

As you said, a few programs won't work this way, but for those that will I don't see any reason to reinstall from scratch. (I usually move programs from their default install location anyway, just so I can keep things organized on my SD card)
