Think I prefer our system where all of these can be used on any outlet

Back in the olden days there was always a cooker spur rated at 30
amps. That came straight from the fuse board to the cooker, which was
wired into the wall plate without a socket.
Yes. And water heating.
Everything else was ring. On each floor you'd have a separate ring for
the sockets and lights.
Ring for lights? In the early days many houses were wired with just the
one ring. Next came a separate one for the kitchen.
