That does not mean it is not there, just that you did not come across it.
I think neil's point is that while it exists, he never needed to use it. And if that's not his point, I'll make it: I've only rarely had to edit init script numbers and I spent some time being in charge of writing installer software for a custom server based on jboss and apache and...but the init scripts that those guys shipped with were good enough and I didn't have to think about the numbers. Drupal should strive for a similar situation. Similarly, sticking a weightsUI onto admin/modules is distracting, confusing, and useless for 99% of Drupal users. It would be nice to be able to edit the weights, but I don't think it makes sense in the interface. If a module's weight is wrong in a situation- maybe log a bug to fix it or to reengineer an "after these modules" and "before these modules" system, but exposing control over the weights seems like the wrong solution even if it gets the job done in those 1% of cases.
