The alternative was him moving to a spot and hoping that his foe decided to come stand next to him.The first time one of my players wanted to wait and see, I reinstituted the delay action, because forcing him to wait through the turns of multiple creatures to react to something when he had won initiative was ridiculous.The bookkeeping is trivial. The shenanigans that do exist are not problematic, and are much less significant than those that occur otherwise. And most importantly, not having those options makes the existence of the initiative count intrusive to the fiction of the game.</blockquote>
