I generally agree with you that FM radio is not a very good user experience (except during emergencies, when it suddenly becomes incredibly useful). But that doesn't mean I get to tell other people whether they want it or not. Enabling the FM radio tuner chip doesn't have to affect the user experience at all for users who don't want to use it. The carrier doesn't have to include an FM radio app pre-installed. Users who want FM radio can install an app for it.
