I agree that the patches are usually very instructive, which is just what I want of them. But quite a lot of people seem to dislike them all the same.
I think that the various UVI Falcon Expansions are largely great, though; even if you may have to simplify them (turn off a layer or sequencer here and there) in order to use them in an ongoing work. But you could also take them as an inspiring starting point. In fact, I've often started with Falcon presets while writing a piece and then, bit by bit, replaced most of them by the time of the finished version by which time I've broken things out for different instruments each with simpler parts.
Anyway, cheese is a good thing, right? I like cheese - chedder, brie, camembert, Wendsleydale with dried apricots, ... And I also like a big, bold, creamy FM or string machine patch from time to time.
