I guess seeing a number is a little more acurate than looking at a colored bar. Sometimes that acuracy it not always needed. I mean the gauges are all percentages so no real need for a % label but displaying the current HP with the HP gauge helps becuase it is more informative. Yeah the extra text like the "%" and "/" is more there for when giving to other people. When you create something yourself you tend to know exactly what it is, yet a complete stranger may not know what you were trying to display with out some sort of label to go with it.
