I don’t think it discourages, the people you pention would simply use the “default” profile. At least with a list of profiles, the idea of tuning pops into your mind and you can go further.

On one hand this gives a really good experience for new users (just pick a profile you want to use) but on the other hand tools like this discourage users for doing proper tuning work (why should I read any documentation and do anything if everything has already been provided by Infinispan authors). Nevertheless I think it might be worth to do a POC and host profiles in a separate repository (to avoid user confusion).
