The majority of Debian users just want to boot their machine. They are
thankful it doesn't collapse on them. Most of the time. Maybe. Who
knows?

Changing the files in "/etc/grub.d/" (1) changes the order of your
grub menu entries (for example, by renumbering the files), (2) changes
the text displayed in those entries (by editing the naming parts of
the scripts; for example getting rid of the superfluous "GNU/Linux"in
the menu entries), (3) adds custom menu entries (like the guy who
added runlevels 3-5 earlier in this thread).

"GNU/Linux" might be unwanted but it is not 'superfluous'. Unless it's
not Debian we are on.
