Yup, that's the apple design philosophy right there.

In fact, the battery percentage option on the 3GS and the 4 allows for such a choice, but you're right that it's uncommon.

Googling around, you can toggle this feature on a 3G (or earlier) by jailbreaking the device and grabbing a third party utility called SBSettings.
