Yeah, I agree that's always their prerogative.Well, if players like to create magic items, they tend to sell any items which does not fit to their needs and use gold gained to create or upgrade magic items specially tailored for them. In such cases, ongoing PCs tend not to be using most of the "random" magic items at all.
So it will depend largely on each play group and party, if having that much "random treasure" is reasonable or not.
Btw, by "semi-randomly" I meant that I look through the MIC, make a little list of items that could be useful to the character, and roll on there to see what they end up with. My intent is that the items are ones that the PC would conceivably have chosen from loot as something useful for their role.
