Oh, what has happened to the good old "Other" option in polls? 
My ideal model of character development is starting out with not too detailed character generation and adding more options to the established prototype when leveling. So give me a hand full of meaningful options when leveling - I don't need gazillions of empty options.

Here are some examples of games for each category.
1) Essentials - Martial Classes or Vampire Class/3.5 Classes
2) Gurps/ West End Star Wars - Usually character creation is complicated (Gurps especially) but once you have the character, skills are about all that changes.
3) 4e Core Classes - Almost every level gives you a choice of powers or feats.

I tell my players, "If you can speak it, write it, draw it, or sculpt it - to a point where I can understand it - it's in the game."
It takes more or less communicating after their initial design, but eventually we reach enough of a shared coherence for play.
That said, the game is designed around class advancement rather than character progression, but those are really just different perspectives on human behavior.

I'm of the same opinion, which sadly doesn't fit any of the three poll options.
