I honestly find it very funny to see them provide Image Stabilization for such a lens.
While traveling recently, i met a canon evangelist who told me, sometimes they have to do all such funny things to please the end users who not necessarily know what is a requirement and what is not at times.
This issue was discussed in detail and the consensus was:
Most amatuers like us, are not reviewing our pictures sensibly. We see photographs being soft/blurred and we ask for Image Stabilizers. In fact we would be shooting at funny situations where the exposure would be so slow that the blur/shake/softness would be because of the long exposure. We immediately exaggerate the role of Image Stabilizer, make it larger than life and assume that we would get razor sharp images with IS even if we are shooting at 1/10th of a second hand held!!!
You are right my friend, dont waste 4 or 5K unnecesarily.
