In general it's considered best practice to make the file system
auto-tune itself as much as possible, because the sad fact is that
99.9999% of the customers aren't going to bother to add any tuning
parameters.  So there hasn't been a push to try to create something
more complex, because it's generally not needed.

Settings via /sys/fs/ext4 are generally for developers as they try to
understand how things work, so they can improve the file systems
defaults / auto-tuning algorithms.
