Are you advocating that most (51%, 75%, 95%?) factory set-ups are indeed "spot on"?

Define "spot-on" in regards to what an individual player might require for set-up.
I agree that set-up on any given guitar is a personal thing that no factory set-up can guarantee, nor should it. The manufacturer will ship the instrument set-up to specs that most unsuspecting players will feel good about -- until they may one day happen to play one set-up to their individual preference.
