For me it isn't about the availability or simplicity, it's about the either/or manner of display in ncurses menuconfig vs/ the simoultaneous display in xconfig. I don't always agree with everything Eric recommends but the percentage is quite high and I very much agree with how he builds custom kernels including using xconfig, avoiding initrd, and enabling performance options.
