I absolutely agree with you.
This is exactly what I am doing,(After I had my fun!)
In fact some of them bought an arranger and even took lessons to read notes!
Hence I never did that.. I even cannot read notes!
I never use one finger chord's by the way, but make the variations of chords with five "fingers" ( I know one is a thumb)
There's no single finger mode I know off , that able's making all major/minor/6th/7th/9th chords etc....
As this was 33 years ago the way I teached myselve playing a piano (transposing chords from my guitar to the piano) the arrangers are the perfect solution for players like me.
I love them!
