If we want to Extend the behavior we have to execute "DoDefault()" every time in every child's Event/Method if we want the parent's Event/Method to fire, which I think is really a pain in the a##.

OK, then tell me when would you have the parent method code execute? Before your code, after your code, in the middle of your code? THAT'S why we have the DODEFAULT(), so we can control when that code executes (if at all).
