I agree with you in principle; when I'm on the track bike I bring my trixie and _maybe_ my park allen wrench mini-set. When I'm on the mountain bike or touring, however, it's nice having a compact, everything-but-the-kitchen-sink tool for field repairs. Also, when you're doing a shakedown ride and it seems like every little thing needs a minor adjustment (like handlebar angle), having a complete set of tools is really handy.
