In Australia, you can vote "above the line" (defaulting to a given party's preferences) because you can have dozens of options across multiple parties. I'm talking paper ballots more than a meter wide. If your chosen party's preferences are close enough to yours that you don't mind any minor discrepancies, it makes it easier to vote and easier to count the vote.
