That's never bothered me, but I guess I see your point. I always figured that the point of having a 20A circuit with 15A receptacles was so that you can plug in and run two 10A devices without popping the breaker.
Stupid question: are there any common household appliances that draw 20A? I've only ever seen the T receptacles in non-household uses.

Window air conditioners, as a sibling dead comment pointed out. You'll commonly see such an outlet below a windowsill in some
apartment buildings for this reason.
