What do you mean by "one user profile model, and each entry would define a different user profile"? Do you mean to have my single user profile model have many foreign keys hanging off of it pointing to other models? Or do you mean have a single user profile model with lots of instance data? Imagine an app where you have users who are teachers, students, or parents. You track different information about teachers (which courses they teach) vs. parents (relationship to student mom/dad, etc). I wouldn't want to cram all of that stuff into a single user profile model and then have to figure out which sets of fields apply at runtime. If it's just instance data and isn't a foreign key to another model, then it won't persist over time.
