Well, someone can do that as well. But I only care about automatic packing/unpacking...

It probably depends on what you are used to. If I click on a file, I am used to it extracting right away, into a subfolder of where the zip was, named like the zip. 

It's not like I were emotionally attached to zip files and would want them to stay around on my drive longer than neccessary :-)
