RISC OS didn't have a menu bar at the top of each window either; its menus were all pop-up. You didn't have to keep flicking the mouse at all!
The main reason for having a menu bar is discoverability. The idea is that you can browse through the menus and get a feel for what commands are potentially available to you. That's not so easy to do when everything is hidden in contextual menus. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
