At level 20, with no bonus spells at all, the Sorcerer would have 270 spell levels to throw about wherever he liked.
What this translates to is about 30 level 9 spells, 58 level 3 spells (my favorite spell level), or any variety of numbers or mismatched groupings.
The Psions have an attempt at balance by forcing players to spend more points to make their spells more powerful, something that Wizards and Sorcerers do just by being a higher level, and even further balanced by restricting the number of spells they get to learn, period.
I don't think the Sorcerer spell list lends itself to the level of flexibility inherent in "Spell Point" play.
