No it doesn't make more sense.
Music doesn't always need to be transposed for one. and 2, note reading has been developed to allow you easiest to sight-read the music by seeing the symbols together rather than trying to read a chord of do-mi-so or pieces of music with lots of notes can become very messy.
Reading music isn't necessarily supposed to be easy to learn, it's supposed to be efficient once you have.
Also consider the following - if somebody gave you the dictionary and told you it's the English language and you considered learning the book from start to finish, you probably wouldn't even bother.
if somebody gave you a phrase book and said this is what you will use most, not only is it more useful, it's more digestible.
Lastly please know, the symbols do not change, unless referring to rhythm. A note of same rhythm is the same no matter where it's placed on the stave. It just looks different if it sits on the line or in between.
