 Developers are abusing wp_options to store own plugin data instead
 bothering to create own table. Why not restrict wp_options for internal
 Core use only?


 Why?

 - This greatly affect performance of site.
 - This makes hard to clean up wp_options when needed.

 Some are good plugins who care about performance so they use seperate
 table.

 Thanks
