So MK has 4 main buttons: 2 punch + 2 kicks. The center button being block. To throw you use the BP/back-punch + BK/back-kick buttons or use the extra button. To use xRay you use both kicks (or the other extra button) + block. So the extra buttons are redundant.

The tag button can be achieved by FP/forward-punch + FK/forward-kick as well, so the tag button is redundant as well. So we could still play everything using only 5 button layout. Anyone else picked up on this?
 
You have just pointed out what they are used for. Not everyone wants to press a combination for a move that does the same thing with only one button.

Simplicity my friend.
 
I assume you're talking about the arcade stick, since it'd be hard if we didn't have a tag button on the common controllers and had to press FP + FK to tag. But anyway, isn't FP + FK the throw button?
