I think that one has to keep in mind that iPhoto is not a photo editing application. Apple always said and markets iPhoto as nothing more than a shoebox replacement, somewhere where you store your pictures. This includes turning them around, giving them names, maybe some minor picture enhancement, but if you want to do some picture changes then you need should get Photoshop or Photoshop Elements.
You said you are paying for it, and yes you do, but you not only get iPhoto but three other apps, most of all Garageband, I can understand if people don't need all four of them or only want one and think Apple should sell them individually for $10, but the price is not bad, and for what iPhoto does I think $10 to $15 is still a great deal. It is the easiest way to manage your digital pictures and that't its purpose, not to be some thing more. That Apple left the back door open for developers is great.
