The problem with work_mem in particular is that the useful range depends quite a bit on how complicated you expect the average query running to be. pgtune tries to model this using an input of what type of application you're running; presuming that a data warehouse application is far more likely to sort/hash a lot of data in one query than a web application for example. But even that relatively simple idea has proven to be confusing to a lot of people, based on the feedback I've gotten.
