You are the one who is setting your style above others.
You kept stating that combat is the primary goal and that not focusing on it (youtr style, apparently) does a disservice to most "end users".I'm saying that there are other ways to approach situations in gaming besides fighting. You're the one saying that RPGs should be devoted to combat, and that any other way is some sort of exception that won't work for most people.
If that's what you think, why don't you just play D&D? Sounds to me like it has everything you desire. A game that based around combat, and play flows from one fight to the next, and better still is supported by the majority of gamers.
From what you have been stating, I don't see why you would want to play a game like RQ/BRP that wastes so much time and pages on things like skills, cults, and cultures, all of which detract from the thing that you hold above everything else, combat. Just think how much more fighting you'd get in an RPG with with a lot more "encounters" each session.
