BTW, I do the same for other drum machines factory presets, Ultabeat, Nepheton 2 and Drumazon 2...and likely other ones like Microtonic and (perhaps) Breaktweaker
for creative purpose , there's absolutely no reason that binary beats monopolise everywhere all the panels of drum machines factory presets
I'm even persuaded that at least, it can even be counterproductive for commercial reasons...
bear in mind that for instance in traditional African music (and even modernized African beats like manding productions) complex grooves are the most used
to give you examples, here a compilation of modern Manding musics from Western Africa , even if production aren't all of top quality (producers lacking money and technical "savoir faire")

I suggest you to listen carefully to these grooves and the way they are arranged...
...in this 1st song, notice the peculiar interpretation of sung phrases in where they tend to binary beats...but staying based on the grounding complex grooves of the overall production
this in the opposite of "swing" or "shuffle" variation that are conceived as phrases tending to complex grooves but basically based on binary beats
this is western mind for most people and even producers in western countries, unfortunately...
