Default hooks?

I have just spent the last hour looking through hooks from a few of the manufacturers,yes i know,i have to get out more .It must be quite bewildering for a novice when looking to buy hooks just to get started, they could spend a fortune and still not have the correct hooks, so i have made a list please feel free to agree or not and add.

nymphs 170s [lighter than 175s] and 175s

buzzer,shrimp ,scud b110 b100s

dry,emergers b400s

I know there are many more but i was thinking about the person who is just starting to tie so i wanted to keep it simple what do you think?

Have a look here Hook Comparison Chart - This chart was originally to be included in the book that Malcolm Knopp and I am writing on tying and fishing Mayfly imitations from around the world. - Global FlyFisher
