Therefore, I use the central spot Only, and set the custom functions so that I can focus with the button on the back of the camera. Since I am a people shooter, I focus on the eyes then recompose, then press the shutter button. Works for me but your mileage may vary.

Most multi-point auto focus cameras pick the closest subject to focus on.
This function is geared toward the total amateur point and shoot
photographer who shoots mostly his or her friends and family in front of
historic buildings, scenery and other vacation favorites and usually uses
"stand in front of that thing" as their only compositional rule. You are
all correct, this function is not for you. The thinking photographer will
want to decide for himself/herself what the camera should focus on.
