This is a good point. 
I think it is something about the paradigm you learn.  That is, you learn the menu paradigm and then you don't have to learn what's in the menus, you just hunt them.  If you have to learn a short cut then you need to constantly remember it. 

That said, I find the context sensitivity of toolbars in OpenOffice quite hateful.
