For people that only drive in fair weather, or have track-only cars, that's an option - for people that live in colder climates, removing the thermostat can be seriously nasty. The engine needs to stay warm to be a peak efficiency, and dropping the coolant temp much below 180* is all bad news.

If you're having problems getting the coolant system bled properly, and think it's the thermostat, you can put it in a pan of boiling water and see if it opens, and/or just replace it. If its good, and you're still having problems with overheating, it's because you've got air behind the thermostat - keep bleeding the system as described above!
