I agree with you whole heartedly at this point. But the emphasis on things like the Character Builder are just starting points, or building blocks. Which is pretty darn smart if you ask me. Integrating them into traditional table tops is just the beginning.
For example I now use the monster builder to build and/or print some of my creations while referencing with the compendium. Its alot easier than going through all the books. Its still limited, and has yet to become elite and solo friendly. But that will change quickly.
