I completely agree. Yet, I decided to only buy the good ones.
(Yes, I got a complete set.)

My interest in gaming in the Gamma and Delta quadrants is fairly minimal but I still bought those books and thoroughly enjoy them.
My only real peeve is having the various starships spread out over so many volumes. I can never remember where to look for a particular class. Like, which book has the Hermes-class scout statted out? 
Is there a master index somewhere?

Most Starfleet starships are statted in either the corebook or the Command Division supplement. I know that the Hermes is in the Command Division book on pp.55-56.
As for a master index, try this at Continuing Mission. That list is a master index for fanmade and official STA-statted ships (though it needs some updating soon).
