I think you're overstating the case.  Most people just use a single
repository and even people who use multiple repositories usually have
one repository that they use more often than others.  In those cases, it
makes sense to set $CVSROOT so you don't have to explicitly set it on
the command line even for checkout (or import!) in most cases.
