But I have to click "more" and then pick it. It's not "just there" in this example, like Digg or StumbleUpon. Sure. But I have to click “more” and then pick it.

For instance, I use delicious, and only delicious, for social bookmarking. None of the other players have received the critical mass among people I commonly share links with that I'd want to move to them, and even if they did, their username space is now sufficiently densely used as to make them uninteresting as a late adopter. I agree that simple is less daunting, and knowing your audience probably helps make the choice simpler, but there's always going to be someone who ends up left out.
